What’s in store for a Canadian springtime? Here are the weather predictions from The 2025 Old Farmer’s Almanac Canadian Edition.

General Weather Report for Canada

Please note that this spring forecast reflects weather deviations from normal for the spring months of April and May. For more details about the forecast, check out The 2025 Old Farmer’s Almanac Canadian Edition.

April/May 2025 Temperatures

As our colorful map reflects, spring will bring warmer-than-normal temperatures from the western portion of the country—British Columbia, Yukon, and southern Northwest Territories—through the Prairies and into Southern Ontario. Quebec’s central and northern areas will also experience warmer-than-normal weather for this time of year.

Other Canadian regions will experience seasonal to cooler-than-normal temperatures; this includes northern Ontario, southern Quebec, and Newfoundland and Labrador. In Atlantic Canada, we’ll see near-normal temperatures for western areas, including Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. 

April/May 2025 Precipitation

The western provinces, which will be warmer than normal, will also be wetter than usual. This includes the western Prairies through British Columbia and into the Yukon and NWT. Newfoundland and Labrador, southeastern Ontario (above the Great Lakes), and southeastern Quebec will also see above-normal precipitation. 

Otherwise, precipitation will be below normal in the heart of Canada and western Atlantic Canada, including Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick.

April and May will be cooler and wetter than normal in the east, with seasonal temps and drier skies in the west. Periodical rainfalls are expected, but no signs of significant snowfall.

Region 2: Southern Quebec

Temperatures will be below normal throughout most of southern Quebec, with precipitation above normal in the east and below normal in the west. Central and northern Quebec will be wetter and warmer than normal. Rain and snow are expected in early April before turning to just rain later in the month which will continue during May.
