Here's your Valentine's Day weather roundup.

WINTER UPDATE: Will winter attempt to make up for lost time during the final month, or will mild weather return for the second half of February. Read our release for the remainder of winter.

Atlantic Canada

  • Maritimes: A passing trough is forecast to bring scattered flurries to the Maritimes. Meanwhile, extreme cold warnings remain in effect for New Brunswick with wind chills of minus 35 forecast in the province through Sunday. Fredericton's daytime high of minus 15oC will feel closer to minus 24 with the wind chill.
  • Newfoundland: Sea-effect squalls expected to develop across western shores of the island. Next system to arrive in Atlantic Canada will be Tuesday. It is expected to be a rain event for the most part with milder temperatures on tap.

Ontario and Quebec

  • Ontario: Arctic front continues to sink south, however, temperatures are set to return to seasonal by Monday. Get the full details here.
  • Quebec: Major storm set to hit the province Tuesday, bringing up to 20 cm for Montreal and upwards of 30 cm for Quebec City

Western Canada

  • Prairies: Light snow forecast to track through southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba Sunday, bringing less than 5 cm to most areas. Clear conditions expected for southern Alberta, as temperatures remain well above seasonal for the week.
  • British Columbia: Rain continues for the South Coast through Sunday. Temperatures remain around seasonal. "Avalanche risk may increase into the week as a fresh snow pack builds on top of a compressed layer from warm conditions last week," The Weather Network's meteorologist Kevin Mackey reports.
