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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
