Wardrobe Recommendations

Today is a “wind + snow” day:

• Wear warm layers with a wind-resistant outer coat—gusts up to 40 km/h will cut through lighter jackets.

• Mitts, a warm hat, and a neck warmer are smart for wind chills in the mid-teens below zero.

• Choose boots with solid grip—light snow over packed surfaces can hide icy patches.

• As temperatures climb toward 0°C later this week, plan for slush by day and refreeze at night (especially Thursday night into Friday morning).

Weather Trivia

When the forecast trends toward 0°C after a colder stretch, roads can become more hazardous even with less snow. Melting during the day can refreeze into hard, glossy ice overnight—often worse than fresh snow for traction.
