While it may seem unusual to see an early snowfall this time of the year, especially since Canada has been experiencing warmer weather than usual recently, Environment Canada meteorologist Sarah Hoffman said there's always a chance for snow in the colder parts of the country. "Calgary has had snow reported in every month of the year; June, July and August have all had snow reported. So it's not super uncommon in Canada for snow to happen even in the summer," she said. Have you ever lived anywhere with snow in the summer months?

Canadians should brace themselves for a winter of record-breaking cold temperatures, according to the long-range weather predictions in the latest issue of The Farmers' Almanac Extended Winter Weather Forecast. The annual periodical is forecasting one of the coldest winters in recent years. Temperatures could plummet as low as -40 degrees Celsius in areas such as the Rockies and Prairies during the month of January. Heavy snowfall is predicted to particularly blanket Quebec and Ontario. "The Maritimes will see a good number of cold rains, and many days filled with wintry mix storms bringing in snow, sleet, ice and rain," The Farmer's Almanac site warns. The Farmer's Almanac uses factors including sun spots and moon phases, prevailing climate cycle, and proprietary formulas based on meteorology to predict the weather. The specificity of their 200-year-old methods, however, are not publicly known.Do you check the Farmers' Almanac for weather?
