Residents in Kingston, Ontario, should prepare for a sudden shift from spring-like warmth to winter weather as temperatures are expected to drop and bring snow starting Wednesday, March 11, 2026. According to Environment Canada, the region will see a transition from rain showers to periods of snow or rain by Wednesday night.

The week starts off mild with a high of 11°C on Tuesday, March 10, before the colder air arrives. By Wednesday, the daytime high will drop to 4°C, with temperatures eventually hitting a low of -3°C overnight as the rain changes over to snow.

The cold weather will continue into Thursday, March 12, with a chance of flurries during the day. Temperatures are expected to drop further to a low of -6°C on Thursday night under clear skies.

This rapid change from double-digit highs to below-freezing temperatures in less than 48 hours could create slippery conditions on local roads. Residents are encouraged to stay updated on local weather forecasts to plan for potentially difficult travel during the middle of the work week.
