It's expected to feel almost 20ºC colder between now and Thursday

As December enters into double-digits, so does the temperature.

We’re exactly two weeks away from Christmas Eve and it feels like March in Montreal. It’s currently 10ºC, according to The Weather Network, but it feels more like 6ºC.

The weather agency’s week-long forecast expects temperatures to feel like -11ºC by Thursday, a difference of 17ºC.

Look Mother Nature, do what you’ve got to do in early and mid-December but by the time the 24th and the 25th hits, you better be tossing us a little bit of snow because nobody wants Santa to be trekking along with mud marks.
