Blowing snow remains a concern as major winter storm departs Quebec
Periods of snow will continue into Sunday night after a major winter storm buried parts of southern and eastern Quebec
Dangerous travel will persist into Sunday night and early Monday morning as periods of lingering snow and gusty winds make for low visibility at times. Blizzard warnings were in effect for Metro Montreal for much of the day Sunday.
Expect significant travel disruptions and cancellations Sunday and lingering into Monday. Many communities are at risk for 25-35+ cm of snow by Monday, including Metro Montreal.
As the snow winds down, please use extreme caution while venturing out. Do not walk in the streets. It's difficult for motorists to see pedestrians around snowbanks, and the roads themselves remain very slick.
Make sure your vehicle is prepared if you absolutely have to travel during hazardous conditions. Stay up-to-date on your local weather alerts, and be sure to check the latest highway conditions before heading out.

The majority of the snow will end overnight Sunday, with some flurries continuing into Monday. Conditions will remain blustery after the storm—beware blowing snow and low visibility, especially in open areas, even after the snow tapers off Sunday night.
