Chilly Northwest Breeze Today, Clear and Colder Tonight, Bright Tuesday
At 6:00 a.m. EST, Geraldton Airport reports -5.6°C under cloudy skies with light snow earlier, a northwest wind at 13 km/h gusting to 30, and a wind chill near -11. The barometric pressure is 101.5 kPa, humidity is 74%, and visibility is 16 km. It’s a classic mid-November morning across Greenstone—grey, breezy, and cold.
Today (Mon, Nov 17) — Cloudy and Cold, Wind Eases Late
Cloud sticks around through the day with a cool northwest breeze near 20 km/h, easing by late afternoon. The temperature will struggle to a high of -3°C, feeling closer to -14 this morning and about -7 by mid-afternoon. The UV index is 1 (low). Watch for brief reductions in visibility in any passing flurry and for gusty crosswinds on open stretches of Highway 11.
Tonight — Clearing Near Midnight, Sharper Chill
Skies clear near midnight as winds fall light (up to 15 km/h). Expect a low of -11°C, with a wind chill near -13 overnight. Any damp surfaces will refreeze, so plan on patchy black ice for the early commute.
Tuesday — Sunny but Brisk; Tuesday Night Turning Cloudy
Tuesday brings sunshine and lighter winds up to 15 km/h. The high is -3°C, but it will feel closer to -14 early before improving to about -5 in the afternoon. Tuesday night turns to cloudy periods with a low near -7°C.
Wednesday — A Little Milder Under Mixed Skies
Wednesday offers a mix of sun and cloud and a modest bump to +1°C in the afternoon. Wednesday night holds cloudy periods with a low near -5°C. It’s a steady, cool stretch—no big storms, but no real thaw either.
What to Wear & Travel Tips
Dress in layers you can adjust: a thermal base, insulating mid-layer, and a wind-resistant jacket. A toque and insulated gloves make a big difference in this morning’s wind chill. Choose grippy, waterproof footwear for frosty sidewalks after sunset. Drivers should allow extra time, expect crosswinds on exposed sections today, and watch for overnight refreeze on bridges and shaded roads.
Greenstone Weather Trivia
When northwest winds rise over the local high ground, they squeeze out extra flurries. That’s why you can see a dusting in Caramat while Longlac stays just cloudy—terrain quietly sets the tone.
