Special Weather Statement for Ottawa

Update #1: Thursday, February 27, 2025 at 8:30 a.m.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Ottawa due to risk of freezing rain followed by significant rainfall and mild temperatures. The risk of freezing rain begins the evening of Tuesday, March 4, with rain ending Wednesday, March 5, 2025.

Rain is expected to move into the area Tuesday night. There is a risk of freezing rain as temperatures may be below the freezing mark as the rain begins. Temperatures should quickly rise above zero, and the rain will continue through Wednesday. This rainfall, combined with melting snow and the limited ability of the frozen ground to absorb this rainfall may lead to localized flooding in low lying areas and water pooling on roads.

Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to continue to monitor the Current Students weather page for updates.

The university remains open and operations are running as scheduled.

Please exercise caution when traveling to and commuting on campus.
