Environment Canada says it's not about how cold it is, but how long this wave of frigid air, will stay around that's unusual.
Meteorologist Alexandre Parent said Wednesday, the big chill is affecting the Prairies, Ontario and western Quebec,
Mr. Parent said northern Ontario is hardest hit by the cold snap, with temperatures expected to feel like –50 with the wind chill in some places. "The size of this cold wave in terms of geographical distribution, is quite exceptional for this early, in the winter season. "What's also exceptional, is the duration of this episode," he said, noting that the extreme cold weather could hang over Quebec, for the next seven days.
