Ottawa Public Health issued an open-ended frostbite advisory on Monday, after a
frigid Arctic air mass is expected to cause the “coldest weather so far this
season,” according to Environment Canada. Monday will see a high of only -15 C,
a low of -21 C, and a wind-chill of -26. The remainder of the week shows little
in the way of warming. According to Environment Canada, Tuesday and Wednesday
boast 60- and 40-per-cent chances of snow, respectively, and temperatures in the
–11 to –16 range, while Thursday promises to be a bright but bitter-cold day —
the numbest of the week — with a high of -11 and a low of -30 accompanying a
30-per-cent chance of flurries. via
