Climate in Niagara Falls (Ontario)
SPRING: Temperatures range from 5° to 19° degrees Celsius (41° - 66° degrees Fahrenheit). Nightly temperatures range from -3° to 8° degrees Celsius (26º to 46° degrees Fahrenheit). As temperature changes are sudden outdoor camping before mid-May is not advisable.
SUMMER: In June, July & August the weather is generally bright and sunny with sporadic rainfall. Storms are caused Lake Erie and Lake Ontario and are seldom severe.
FALL: In the fall, it is unlikely to snow prior to the end of October. First killing frost and/or snowfall be expected by late October or early November. Mixed weather patterns prevail. Rain and cloudy skies are common.
WINTER: The days are generally cold and clear. Snow is moderate. Snow storms are infrequent. Lake effect snowfalls are mainly localized to areas near Buffalo and southward. Lake Erie, during extended cold weather will freeze over completely. It is worth noting that many of the activities associated with the falls (eg Maid of the Mist and others) do not run during winter due to the frozen conditions.
