Montreal weather: It's not the heat, it's the volatility
Montrealers can be forgiven for looking at their wardrobe with disquietude. You'll want shorts and sandals Friday and Saturday, but a rain-resistant jacket for Sunday and you'd best keep socks and a cardigan (cardigans are cool again, honest) handy for the single-digit end to the weekend.
Friday first: Expect a high of 28 C with a humidex of 30 and a UV index of 8, or very high. Blistering temperatures resume for Saturday, with a high of 31 C and a humidex of 35 C.
Sunday sends things sideways with a high of 22 C and an overnight low of 9 C.
