The Weather Network has released a sneak peek at Canada’s winter forecast and those who love the snow will be quite happy.
According to the service, a developing La Niña will be one of the key drivers of our winter pattern.
"La Niña winters do tend to be colder and snowier across Western Canada, and at this point we expect that we will see that typical pattern again this winter,” explains the TWN write up.
“For BC and a large part of the Prairies, we expect colder than normal temperatures with an abundance of snow across the region, including the ski areas.”
There’s also the potential for Western Canada to see a very active storm track this winter, but it’s too early to know exactly where it’ll set up.
“Between now and the release of our final winter forecast at the end of November, we will fine-tune the forecast and seek to get a better handle on where the dominant storm track will be,” the write up continues.
“That will be the key to whether the upcoming winter is simply mild or whether it turns messy and wild.”
On the eastern side of the country, temperatures are expected to be above normal for areas closer to the United States border, while the top halves of Ontario and Quebec will see near normal conditions.
