Heat wave brings summer-like temperatures up to 33°C next week

After a prolonged cool and grey spring, Montreal is finally catching a break in the weather department. A significant warm-up is on the way, with temperatures climbing well above seasonal averages by early next week. This weekend starting Friday will begin with mostly warm and sunny conditions, with a high of 20°C after some early morning showers clear by afternoon. Saturday will see mainly sunny skies in the morning before increasing cloud cover near noon, with temperatures reaching 23°C. The warm trend intensifies early next week, with a heat wave bringing summer-like temperatures up to 33°C. This timing couldn't be better for the Victoria Day long weekend, as Montrealers head outdoors to enjoy the season's first true warm spell. Locals have been eagerly anticipating this shift after weeks of unseasonably cool conditions.
