Pembroke, Ontario residents are preparing for a quick change in weather as a warm Monday afternoon is expected to turn into freezing temperatures by Tuesday morning. This shift follows a day of spring-like weather that could lead to slippery conditions on local streets.
On Monday, March 9, 2026, the area saw morning showers and a risk of freezing rain before the weather warmed up to a high of 12°C. According to Environment Canada, the temperature will drop significantly overnight.
Temperatures are forecast to fall below freezing in the early hours of Tuesday, March 10, 2026, reaching -2°C by 5:00 AM. These cooler conditions are expected to continue through the day, posing a risk for the Tuesday morning commute.
The rapid change from afternoon warmth to freezing morning temperatures creates a risk for drivers and pedestrians. Any slushy areas or puddles left from the Monday rain are likely to refreeze into ice, which may cause hazardous conditions on roads and sidewalks.
