Live forecasts update automatically; written guidance last reviewed 16 June 2026 by the Canada Edition Weather Desk. Data from Environment and Climate Change Canada and other national met services via Open-Meteo.
The Weather Network is Canada’s largest private-sector weather service, and the live forecast above draws from its network of local sensors and proprietary models to give you current conditions for your area. It offers hourly, daily and long-range outlooks alongside radar and alerts.
How does the Weather Network coverage compare with Environment Canada?
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) remains the country’s official meteorological authority, issuing all public warnings. The Weather Network, a division of Pelmorex Corp, repackages that official data with its own forecasting algorithms and adds hyper-localized content, such as “Feels Like” temperatures and allergy reports. Many Canadians check both for a fuller picture, especially when planning travel.
Where can I find the Weather Network on Canada Edition?
The live forecast above updates automatically. For city-specific detail, head to our Toronto weather page or the national Canada weather hub. If severe storms or blizzards are in the forecast, we also link directly to weather warnings issued by ECCC.
Is the Weather Network free to use?
Yes, its website and app are free with advertising. A premium tier – no ads and extended forecasts – is available by subscription through the mobile app.
How accurate are its forecasts?
Environment Canada’s own studies show private-sector forecasts generally match, and in some short-range windows slightly exceed, public forecast accuracy. The Weather Network’s “model blend” approach helps account for local terrain.
Can I use the Weather Network for severe-weather alerts?
It carries ECCC‑issued warnings, but the official source for alerts remains weather.gc.ca and the national alerting system. The Weather Network may add context like storm tracks.
