Weather report for May 17, 2025

Expect a cool, blustery Saturday across the Northeast, including Timmins, Kapuskasing, Hearst, and Moosonee. Today’s high will hover just above freezing for most areas—Timmins will see a high of 3°C, and it’ll feel even colder with the brisk northwest winds gusting up to 40 km/h. Overnight, temperatures will dip to around -4°C, with clear skies and winds settling down.

Skies will be mainly clear through the day, giving a bit of sun, but the wind will keep that chill in the air. If you’re heading out, especially early or after dark, be sure to bundle up. Roads and sidewalks may be slippery in shady spots, so use caution if you’re out walking or driving.

Looking ahead: Sunday stays cool, with a bit warmer temperatures—afternoon highs around 6°C in the southern towns and 4°C closer to James Bay. Expect increasing cloudiness late in the day. Into the start of the workweek, things gradually moderate: highs push toward 8–10°C by Tuesday, and it looks like rain could return midweek. For those planning anything outdoors, your best bet for dry weather is Saturday and most of Sunday.
