December's weather is set to bring plenty of storm systems and plunging temperatures, making the month one to remember (and prepare for).</p><p>From intense snowfall to freezing rain storms, it seems Quebecers can expect just about every winter surprise. Here's the day-to-day lowdown on what this wild winter forecast might look like from November to the end of December.</p><h3>Quebec's November forecast</h3><br/><ul><li><strong>4th - 7th </strong>Clear skies, crisp air, then turns milder.</li><li><strong>8th - 11th </strong>Rapid temperature changes accompany an intensifying storm moving east: Expect a heavy dose of rain or wet snow. Much colder air follows.</li><li><strong>12th - 15th </strong>Lingering clouds and spotty precipitation. Then turning decidedly colder.</li><li><strong>16th - 19th </strong>Wet snow for Quebec, with up to 30 cm over the Laurentians.</li><li><strong>20th - 23rd </strong>Dry and cold.</li><li><strong>24th - 27th </strong>Wet weather arrives with fast-moving front.</li><li><strong>28th - 30th </strong>Storm hugs the Atlantic Coast, bringing increasing winds and copious precipitation.</li></ul><h3>Quebec's December forecast</h3><br/><ul><li><strong>1st - 3rd </strong>Lots of clouds, with showers of rain and wet snow, followed by clear and cold weather.</li><li><strong>4th - 7th </strong>Coastal storm moves along the Atlantic Seaboard, bringing a variety of precipitation types.

Cold and snow have often been a long time coming, but this year will be different." In fact, Ouimet noted that the last truly cold December in Quebec was back in 2018.</p><p>Will this winter be entirely white in Quebec? That’s still up in the air and largely depends on how La Niña shapes up. La Niña is a natural climate pattern that could either keep Quebec relatively mild with fewer Arctic blasts or bring in a brutal winter if it shifts cold air towards Eastern Canada. </p><p>Either way, Ouimet says we could see plenty of snow—or a messy mix of snow, rain, and ice—depending on how the Arctic air flows this season.</p><p>With Quebec's winter weather forecast predicting non-stop winter action throughout November and December, this season is set to start with a bang. </p><p>So, whether you're preparing for snow days or stocking up on hot chocolate, get ready for a chilly one!</p><p>shortcode-Notices-callout]</p><p><em>AI tools may have been used to support the creation or distribution of this content; however, it has been carefully edited and fact-checked by a member of MTL Blog's Editorial team.
