The climate of Quebec (Canada)
Quebec is one of the provinces in Canada in which French is spoken. It is the second most densely populated area in Canada. One of Canada’s largest cities is Montreal. Because the province is very large there are differences in temperature. The southern part, which is the most densely populated area, has a continental climate. This type of climate has four distinct seasons. Hot summers and cold winters with large amounts of snow and rain. The central region has longer winters and short and cold summers. The northern tip has an Arctic climate. Winter here lasts for up to five months; in the northern part about eight months. Differences in temperatures between these ‘two winters’ can be as large as 25 degrees Celsius.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:

	chance of (very) hot weather	chance of (very) cool weather	chance of long-term precipitation	chance of hurricanes (cyclones)	chance of sunny days	UV-index
