We'll see if that happens. The Lakes are quite warm at the moment. I think the suburbs, where I am, has a shot of making it down that far. YYZ, maybe -4F.

October 2018 was fairly cold for us in Toronto. Will be interesting to see if this year can beat it.

It's actually looking normal to slightly below for the eastern Great Lakes, for the first half of the month.

Hey Sub_Zero, speak to Buffaloweather about joining our Discord group.

I'm predicting we'll see above average temperatures, perhaps well above, until around the October 15-20th time frame. Following that, it wouldn't surprise me to see much colder temperatures. I'm thinking the first sticking snow in Toronto will be around the November 20th time frame.

Yes. In the Discord group, I'm Toronto Blizzard

By the way, thanks for inviting me to the Discord group BuffaloWeather.

Not that I'm a fan of Fox either....I'm always searching for balance, that's all.

OT seems kind of one side - like a combination of the CBC and MSNBC.

Looks like another heatwave may be on the way in the August 6th timeframe.
