Canada’s November Forecast: A Calm Fall Before Winter’s Arrival

Canada is heading into November with a bit of a seasonal twist this year. According to The Weather Network and the latest forecasts from The Old Farmer’s Almanac, much of the country will enjoy an extended stretch of fall weather before winter makes its dramatic entrance toward the end of the month. It’s almost like the calm before the snowy storm — a period of mild days, rain showers, and just a hint of what’s to come.

October wrapped up warmer than usual across nearly all provinces except British Columbia, and that mild pattern is expected to continue into early November. From the B.C. Interior across the Prairies and into northern Ontario, above-seasonal temperatures will keep things feeling more like late October than early winter. But don’t get too comfortable — because by the time we near the month’s end, forecasters say a sharp shift is waiting in the wings.

By late November, colder air is expected to spill across the eastern two-thirds of the country, bringing below-seasonal temperatures and the first widespread taste of winter. That means cities from the Prairies to the Maritimes could see their first significant snowfall as the month closes out. For now, though, Canadians can expect relatively mild afternoons, crisp evenings, and a mix of rain and early snow showers depending on where they live.

In southern Ontario, the story looks a bit more unsettled. The Old Farmer’s Almanac predicts November could actually end up being one of the snowiest periods of the fall and early winter. Average monthly temperatures are projected around 1°C — slightly below normal — setting the stage for a mix of rain, slush, and snow through the middle and later part of the month. Between November 25 and 27, forecasters are even eyeing the potential for the region’s first snowstorm before December officially arrives.

Out west, things look a little different. The Farmer’s Almanac is calling for a “classic Canadian winter” in British Columbia, with colder-than-average temperatures and frequent snowfalls expected to hit areas like Big White Ski Resort. Historically, the Almanac’s predictions have lined up well for B.C.’s interior, and this year’s outlook suggests plenty of powder and strong ski conditions through the season.

Overall, Canada is getting a few extra weeks of fall — but winter is definitely not far behind. By the end of November, that familiar chill will be settling in, snow will start creeping south, and storm systems will begin to ramp up. So, while Canadians can still enjoy their pumpkin-spice lattes and mild weekends for now, it’s wise to keep the winter coats and shovels close at hand. The next chapter of the season is already on its way.
