Quiet weather pattern till....

Yep the end is in sight...the end of the quiet weather that is. Despite it being tranquil this week, it still managed to snow on three mornings and this seemingly endless winter continues. March 15 today and still no sign of spring. The snow piles remain very high. The photo above I took of crews attempting to widen streets in Kemptville yesterday.

A little snow overnight has greased up roads and this will occur again tonight. Tomorrow will be sunny and pleasant as will Monday. Then it gets interesting. A storm will be reorganizing in the central plains and moving northeast. It will pass very close to the St. Lawrence Valley late Tuesday or Wednesday with heavy precipitation and wind. The question is what type and how much, and that has yet to be determined. Either way it will be nasty because any rain now will increase the risk of flooding.

Stay tuned and be safe...
