Weather in Quebec
Québec has three distinct climates: the humid continental climate in the region covered by boreal forest (south of the 50th parallel), the subarctic climate in the taiga region (between the 50th-58th parallels), and the arctic climate of Nunavik, the tundra region above the 58th parallel, home of the Inuit.
Québec's southernmost climate is marked by seasonal extremes of temperature. A rigorous snowy winter, with an average annual snowfall of over 3 metres (10 feet), gives way to an exhilarating spring and a hot summer, extinguished by a crisp and flamboyant autumn. But through all the thermometer's ups and downs, the hospitality and conviviality of Quebecers is legendary.
