Plenty of high temperature records will be broken.
I recognize that guy
An incredible 24C above normal for a 7-day stretch lasting from Christmas to New Year’s. Hudson Bay could be your new beach destination for the holidays.
On second thought, temperatures will only be a couple degrees above freezing and there’s just 6 hours of daylight.
And we now have a new round of snow squall watches. Winds will switch back to the northwest late tonight and gust to 60km/h on Thursday. Heavy snow rates of 5-10cm per hour are possible in the heaviest squalls. #LdnOnt could see 30cm+ by Friday morning. #onstorm
Another 30cm of snow possible for some of the hardest hit communities still under a state of Emergency. Toronto also expected to get first accumulating snow of the season Wednesday combined with 50km/h winds.
Highway 11 remains closed but plows are now clearing the road with an opening of the highway likely later this afternoon.
The first thundersnow now showing up east of Kincardine. Lightning and thunder will be common in the more intense squalls through Saturday night.
Bring a shovel. This is the estimate by gametime
These forecasted snow amounts through the end of day Saturday are impressive. Snow becomes heavy in the lake belt tonight with only slight variations in wind direction over the next 48-hours. Blowing snow and zero visibility will likely shut down some highways this weekend.
Heavy lake effect snow squalls will set up Thursday night and continue through at least Monday. Some areas closer to Lake Huron and Georgian Bay could get up to 80cm. Driving will be very difficult in this region all weekend long.
First half of December will be colder than normal for the eastern half of Canada and the far north. Milder weather returns to the west.
Dense fog a concern this afternoon in some areas. With visibility near zero, drive with care and give yourself plenty of space.
Today’s “find the front” game is too easy. Heavy rain and a sharp 180 degree wind shift this evening along with gusts up to 70km/h. Could even see a thunderstorm. #onstorm
The pressure is now down below 950mb with this impressive cyclone off the west coast. The centre stays offshore and starts to slowly weaken tomorrow but the effects in the form of high waves, heavy rain, mountain snow and wind will continue for days.
Is this the last of the sunny and mild days in Toronto? It certainly looks like with with a major pattern change on the way.
Yep I’m here. Trying it out like so many others.
An icy start to the day tomorrow across parts of New Brunswick. Freezing rain warning in effect.
This blob of thunderstorms will likely become T.S. Sara. The verdict is still out on just how strong she will get in the Caribbean and if Florida will eventually be impacted next week. Stay tuned.
Just preparing for snow and salt season. The boots are out.
