How this works
About these pages
Forecast Bar polls Environment and Climate Change Canada's alert feed continuously to deliver push notifications to its users. These pages are the same feed, organised by place: one page for each of ECCC's 419 public forecast regions, one for each major city, and one for every province and territory. Each page shows the alerts in effect, in plain English, with a map, the last 30 days, and a running 12-month count by alert type.
Every page is also available as JSON by adding .json to its address, for anyone who wants the data in their own tools. The United States has the same pages, built from National Weather Service alerts. City list from Wikidata; region boundaries from ECCC.
To get any of these alerts on your phone the moment they are issued, install Forecast Bar and add the places you care about.
Plain English
What these alerts mean
A warning means the hazard is happening or about to; a watch means conditions favour it; an advisory is a lesser hazard still worth planning around.
A heads-up about conditions that do not meet warning or advisory criteria but still deserve attention, such as a strong storm, patchy fog or a brief burst of snow.
Frost is expected on the ground. Cover sensitive plants overnight.
Strong sustained winds or gusts, typically 70 km/h sustained or 90 km/h gusts, that can cause damage. Secure loose objects and expect downed trees and outages.
Sustained winds of 35 mph or more with falling or blowing snow reducing visibility to under a quarter mile for three hours or more. Do not travel.
