Montreal weather - this weekend

Hi
Need some advice.

Weather.com indicates the temps are mid seventies and the low in the high 50's/low 60's.

I am geting a jacket for evening. I am wondering if I will need a jacket for daytime is it windy, would it be better to have boots rather than open toes shoes.

Really appreciate any info - feeling cold makes me miserable - but am trying to reduce my luggage.

Environment Canada shows Saturday a little warmer than what you have posted. http://www.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/fo...ity_e.html?yul

Only you can decide what you will be comfortable with.

Thanks Gavin, I know cold/hot is subjective
while I wear a nice thick sweater in my cube, my coworker is the next cube is sitting in shorts and sandals.

Well, I guess I could always buy something, always an appealing option

indie,
Go shopping here!

www.lesailes.com

When we go to Montreal in August/September, I always manage to find something great on sale here
Have a good time!
Boy, do I wish I were in Montreal this week~

Scarlet, unfortunately Les Ailes is only a shadow of its former self. When we were there a month ago the top two floors were closed. There is always Simons.

Simons is good and sometimes so is Ogilvies .. why is Ailes doing badly?
Thanks for telling me, Gavin.

Les Ailes almost went under but was allowed a restructuration plan that involved downsizing; it was done well and the reduced store is attractive but only a shadow of what it was; really too bad......

For the weather in mtl, you'll be fine with open sandals during the day but a closed shoe might serve you better at night; it's actually perfect weather for sight seeing, the highs get warmer than predicted lately....
