Wx Update

After some nice weather last week with temps in the 20Cs....almost hitting
30C on one day.....we have seen somewhat of a downturn. Yesterday's high was
only near 8C with rain....today will be generally the same.Better and more
seasonable temps will begin to move in tomorrow.Temps should be near 20C by
the end of the week.

Last Night's Waxing Moon and Venus

First full week of Spring 2015

So we are starting the first full week of Spring.
I hope it's better where you are than it is here.....maybe the 4 ft snow
banks will soon start melting.Our fingers are crossed.
-9C at 9AM

Finally....a clear night

The clouds finally moved out...a rare occurrence here these days.....and we were treated to this sight.The Moon ,Venus and Mars in conjunction.

Feb 2 Snowstorm

The snow began around noon and continued until midnight...maybe a bit longer...not sure,I was in bed before it was over.

Total accumulation here was about 20cms.We received less rain than expected and temps did not rise to +8C.Temps did increase during the storm but they did not make it above freezing at ground level.There was however a fair amount of ice pellets from upper level warm air.

Overnight the temps dropped to -12C and the snow developed a 5 cm 'crust'.The snow that was pushed off the streets by the plows froze into something similar to cement......so it was hard going getting everything cleaned up today.

Unfortuately,there is another storm on the way for Thursday.It's a toss up at this point if it will be rain or snow.Time will tell.

Sunday Feb 1,2015 - Cold and Wintery

Feb came in cold and wintery.Temp is currently at -11C on my thermometer and winds are brisk making for a windchill near -20C.The street is snow covered this morning after an evening of light snow that began as freezing drizzle in the late afternoon.

More snow is on the way for tomorrow with a change over to rain possible here on the coast.

Seems like winter is just starting.....
