Question : We are traveling from Burlington,VT to Quebec City,QC in Feb. Does weather make driving conditions unbearable?
We are from California and have little to no experience driving in bad weather. Would driving the 239 miles from Burlington VT to Quebec City in February be ill advised? If so, do you know of alternate ways of transportation???

It can and does get really nasty in that part of the world in winter, but the Vermonters do an excellent job of clearing the roads . If that is still no acceptable you can drive the 55miles north to Rouses Point NY and take Amtrak [ the Adirondack] to Montreal and then catch a train to Quebec. Hopefully the schedules will coordinate.

It totally depends. So far this winter, we have had two small snow storms (1 to 3 inches) in the Burlington area. Today the temperature is 40 and there is not a cloud in the sky.February can bring dry roads or lots of wet snow. There really is no way to guarantee the weather.There are bus companies that go to Quebec City. You can also take a bus up to Montreal and then the train to Quebec City.Try Vermont Transit, Amtrak (Essex Junction), and Premier Coach out of Colchester.
