Montreal weather: This outlook is par for the course
Montrealers had a taste of summer, and now we're back to spring as May inches toward June.
Expect increasing cloudiness early this morning and a good chance of showers in the afternoon. The temperature will hit a high of 19 C with a UV index 5, or moderate. The overnight low will be 14 C.
According to EarthSky, the photogenic phenomenon Manhattanhenge could happen in New York Thursday. This happens when the sun aligns with the city's cross-streets 'to illuminate the 'canyons' created by the tall city buildings.
If you leave now, you'll still miss it, so instead stay home, wait till nightfall and hope the clouds clear enough to spot the stars Pollox and Castor hanging out above the sliver of moon.

Montreal's weekend weather: Stop, collaborate and listen
Between construction and the Tour de l'Île, Montrealers will have to show extra patience during the weekend. The Montreal traffic report suggests avoiding most bridges and tunnels if you're leaving the city and with extra closures because of the annual bike event, the best plan is to enjoy what the city has to offer — and to do it using public transit or foot power. If you must drive, keep your cool. You'll get there eventually. There's a chance of showers Friday and Saturday, then clouds on Sunday. Friday's high will be 23 C with a humidex of 26 and UV index of 7, or high. At night, temperatures will drop to 14 C. On Saturday, expect a high of 18 C, followed by Sunday's 17 C.
