  1. There is a T-storm to the SE of London that is almost stationary. A few unincorporated towns are probably getting quite the rainfall totals.
  2. Unirrigated lawns are toast. Recent transplants are already seeing leaf drop. No above average chances of rain until next Tuesday. Sniffed this persistent dry down awhile ago.
  3. 42 degrees this morning. Stiff breeze by 9 am. Dry air. Punt all 3 of them. Where is my gulf air?
  4. Broadly speaking. When the Bermuda high sets up shop over the SE, what does that usually mean for the Great Lakes?
  5. I had a huge line come through. Tornado warnings just 30 miles west of me. Somehow it was fairly tame for me. No high winds, lightning and thunder always somewhere in distance. Glad to have picked up 0.85” of rain though.
  6. As a plant pathologist who knows that there is an intimate relationship with fungal disease and weather - this summer is shaping to be a punt.
  7. I was hoping I was wrong. But the story of many parts of Ontario and SW Quebec will be drought. Isolated spots got a T-storm last week that just ran off of most surfaces. It is dry here. I can’t imagine what the current realities are in Ottawa and Montreal. There seems to be a fair chance of precipitation tomorrow or Thursday. After that...nothing. Summer hasn’t officially started yet.
  8. Who ever lived in that house has probably joked that 2020 couldn’t get any worse.
  9. Environment Canada just issued a severe weather watch for tonight. I sure hope we get every drop. Only picked up 1 mm of rain in last nights system.
  10. I enjoy the light angles this time of year. From about May 7 to about August 1 my yard gets enough sun to form a dense canopy. I live in suburbville where most of the shade comes from houses.
  11. Had a weather advisory for 20-40 mL of rain today. Picked up 8 mL. I have a suspicion that the eastern part of this region may be dry.
  12. May 20: 1st 70 degree day May 23: 1st 80 degree day May 25: 1st 90 degree day? Sitting at 89. RIP Spring 2020. May 20th and 21st were awesome.
  13. First 80 degree day here today. We finally hit 70 degrees three days ago. And that’s spring. 2 days in the 70s before the 80 train.
  14. Beautiful 73 degree day here. Toronto low 60s. The winds must be kicking off the lake or something there. We are going to get 6-7 straight days of summer like conditions. Warm, humid, and repeated chances of afternoon pop ups.
  15. 78 degrees in Timmins Ontario. 75 in Ottawa. 73 in Montreal. 75 in Quebec City. Meanwhile - Kitchener, Guelph, and Toronto haven’t hit 70 yet this year. Edit: Sault Ste Marie and Owen Sound also hit 70+ today. This has to be a first.
  16. From 44 to 58 F in only 3 hours. One of the fastest rises of the spring. I’m betting the over on the 65 F daytime high.
  17. Today briefly hit 63-64. Nice pleasant surprise. Looks like 72 hours of mostly clear skies. Im calling Thursday as our first 70 degree day. Going to get the fireball on ice.
  18. I wonder where July 2017 ranks. I remember substantially training when I lived in that area. 3rd-4th week of that month.
  19. 100+ mm (3+ inches) for Toronto is the biggest weather forecast bust that I’ve seen in my first two years living in Ontario.
  20. This is going to be pretty important rainfall for London and eastward. Montreal and Ottawa is already dry. They likely won’t see a drop from this system. Looking at the radar - I’m taking the under for Kitchener. Last advisory is 1-2 inches (30-60 mm). I’ll say 0.65 inches (20 mm).
  21. That will cause crippling damage to a number of golf courses there. If that were to verify verbatim- that could close the most affected courses for the season.
  22. We gave her a run today! Highest temp of the year.
  23. I’m going to switch my vacation days. Tuesday was supposed to be great. No way in heck I’m going to take Tuesday off from work now. Went from 71 degrees to 51 degrees. I’ll take off that following Monday instead.
  24. I live in Kitchener Ontario (hour west of Toronto) and I will go crazy if Northern Ontario/Quebec hits 70 degrees before we do. And yet it will likely happen this Wednesday. Unreal.
  25. Currently 1/4 inch in my rain gauge. Seems to be under performing along the 401.
