Canada's winter forecast is out now and reveals where you'll get deep freezes and blizzards

A winter forecast for the season is out now.

Canada's weather is set to feature deep freezes, blizzards, "widespread snowstorms," and more!

The extended winter weather forecast was just released by the Farmers' Almanac, and "a classic Canadian winter" is on the way.

Traditional winter patterns are set to return in Canada, with snowfalls, "deep freezes," and powerful storms.

By late December, unsettled weather is expected across the country, including snow and sleet in the east and mixed conditions in the west.

January is set to be a "stormy and frigid." You should be ready for blasts of Arctic air in the east, rain and snow in the west, and "bitter cold" and blizzards in the Prairies.

The forecast for February calls for "widespread snowstorms and deep freezes," including blizzard conditions in Ontario and the Prairies.

March is set to be a transitional month as cold lingers in the north and east, while milder air pushes in from the west. You should expect rain, fog, and late-season snowstorms.

Now, here's what the Farmers' Almanac has forecast for each province this winter.

B.C.'s weather during the winter season is expected to feature average temperatures and average precipitation.

Weather in coastal parts of the province will be more variable as occasional thaws with torrential rain interrupt cold snaps.

Southern B.C. will experience brief warming trends, particularly in February and early March, but it will also be rainy and windy.

Interior parts of B.C. are in for heavy snow during Pacific storms.

In the Prairies, a very cold winter with above-average snowfall is forecast.

Arctic air is expected to dominate Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, especially in January and February. That means wind chills and "prolonged deep freezes."

You should expect whiteouts and blizzard conditions in the region because of Alberta clipper weather systems.

Ontario's weather this winter is expected to be cold with above-average snowfall.

Southern parts of the province will experience more variability. While occasional thaws may offer brief relief, sharp cold snaps will still make their presence felt.

But "frequent snowstorms," lake-effect snow and icy conditions are still forecast for southern and eastern Ontario.

Quebec is forecast to be cold and snowy during the winter.

Arctic air is set to bring deep freezes and "dangerous" wind chills in northern Quebec.

Southern parts of Quebec will experience more variability with occasional thaws and cold snaps.

Blizzards and nor'easters are in the forecast for Quebec, especially in late January and February.

In the Atlantic provinces, it's expected to be a very cold, wet and snowy winter season.

Nova Scotia and P.E.I. are forecast to get frequent rain-snow mixes and coastal flooding during strong storms.

Also, you should expect multiple blizzards, especially during January and February, in Newfoundland and Labrador.

In this winter forecast for the 2025 and 2026 season, the Farmers' Almanac said it will be "a winter to remember" in Canada.
