Here’s the weather forecast for the long weekend in the Montreal area. Spoiler alert: keep the umbrella handy, and don’t put the winter coat away just yet.

Thursday starts off with mainly sunny skies, but clouds will move in by late morning ahead of tonight’s rain. There’s a high of 8C, with a wind chill making it feel closer to -9C this morning.

Tonight’s rain will carry into Friday, with temperatures climbing to a mild 18C and gusty southwest winds.

Saturday cools back down to 8C with cloudy skies and more rain overnight.

Easter Sunday brings periods of rain and wind with a high of 11C.

And here’s what no one wants to hear for Monday: rain could turn to flurries, with a high of 2C and overnight lows dipping to -6C, meaning a chilly end to the long weekend.
