Re: Southern Ontario Weather Website
I know this isn't the point of your website, but I will say that there does seem to be a gap here in Southern Ontario for frequent, detailed, non-technical weather forecasting and analysis in blog...

June 1, 1986 - Saskatoon tornadoes
I found this vivid recollection of a largely forgotten Canadian tornado event (probably because there was no deaths or major injuries). I've posted it below for ease, but here's a link to the blog I...

Re: Open chit-chat thread - no weather talk :)
So, I won't be moving to Toronto this summer after all. I was operating under a misunderstanding - I won't go into it in detail, but basically I thought you had to be in Ontario to get into this...

Re: April 18, 2013
Cool that the tornado's made weather history for being the first in Canada to be rated with the EF scale... Goes to show how out of the loop I've been though - I knew that EC was considering making...

Re: Winnipeg - deep snow
Even though I'm living in England, I keep tabs on the weather back at home in both southern Manitoba and southern Ontario. Well, Winnipeg still had a snowpack of around 37 cm as of yesterday morning...

Absolutely gorgeous day today. Highs of 14 C, just a gentle breeze, wall-to-wall hazy sunshine, flowers blooming. Not a speck of cloud in the sky. People take advantage of days like this in England...

Re: December 26-27 Winter Storm
Montreal sure got walloped by this system. With 45 cm of snow, this storm broke their previous all-time record of 43.2 cm set way back on March 4, 1971. (Got these figures from TWN website.)
