  1. Big time over performer in KW. Picked up 8 inches (20cm). Snowed from 10 am - 6:30 pm. Beautiful snow. Off an on showers now. Initial predictions this morning called for 5 - 10 cm. Up it to 10-15 cm by noon and then half way through they issued a warning for up to 20 cm. Will likely finish with 21-22 cm.
  2. 5-10 cm was the same for KW. I’m thinking we have a chance to over perform that by a hair.
  3. Looking pretty good here in Kitchener Ontario. Perfect timing too. Snow TV should start around noon.
  4. What the heck happened to the Canadian Rockies. Went from moderate temps to incredible snow. The cold air anomalies just keep sweeping in for 2 weeks straight according to the GFS.
  5. Smoke is bad in northern PA. Was going to go to Cherry Springs State Park tonight to star gaze. Cancelled it because of smoke pollution.
  6. Nothing severe here. But the most spectacular light show of the year for us.
  7. That wasn’t my lawn. This is my lawn.
  8. This lawn was completely dormant by the 2nd week of July. I honestly think it’s dead from the drought. In the last 105 days, we’ve only had 1 day in which we got >0.75”
  9. What’s unique about this dry spell is that nothing too abnormal will show up on the records. Airports have been hit with pop ups. In my backyard I’ve measured 4.75” since May 18. Of that, 2.25” occurred on August 3rd.
  10. The Burlington/Hamilton area and down towards the Niagara region had a few training storms today. I could see the massive clouds all day. Typically you get the initial line and that sucks all the energy out of it. But more kept coming. Few of the storms were tornado warned.
  11. I drove by some corn fields today’s in areas just south of Kitchener. It’s bad. Leaf curling, half the leaves are brown. Just not good. Our last rain was 13 days ago. Only about 1.3” in July. Not so fun fact. More than half of all Canadians live in areas with at least abnormally dry conditions.
  12. For parts of MI and ON their doesn’t seem to be a lot of optimism for more than an inch of rain in the next 12 days or so.
  13. We’ve seen it here too. Toronto got blitzed yesterday by a big one that caused some flash flooding. Nothing here in the last 2 weeks. The sound of crunch is getting old when walking on (what used to be) grass.
