Cold weekend ahead

Arctic high pressure is poised to settle across Ontario and Quebec this weekend giving both provinces another cold spell. It will however be dry with no major storms in sight for the foreseeable future. The only snow will occur later today as a weak clipper and associated arctic front move across the both provinces form west to east. A brief period of steady snow will accumulate 2-5cm across most regions from this afternoon into the early overnight period. The snow will be accompanied by gusty winds. After a high close to the freezing point in most localities it will drop to -20C tonight and not warm much tomorrow or Sunday. Skies will clear by noon on Saturday.
