Meanwhile that fierce storm in the central plains has dumped 3 feet of snow in South Dakota with hurricane force winds. The system is heading for Manitoba.
Fog this morning in Kemptville as the temperature hit 1C at 7am.
Happy Birthday Julie!
Kemptville and eastern Ontario remain sandwiched between two major storm systems, one on the east coast and the other over the northern plains. We will benefit with abundant sunshine and very warm temperatures with highs close to 19C again today. We have a way to go, calm winds and clear skies allowed the temperature to rapidly fall from yesterdays high of 19C all the way to 1C at 7am this morning here in Kemptville. No frost occurred, but lots of fog. Our recent Indian Summer like spell of warm weather will come to an end this weekend as showers from the western system begin to move in with cooler temperatures. Colder air and the possibility of snow may return for next week.
Tropical Storm Paloma has developed north of Nicaragua and is expected to rapidly intensify into a Hurricane before threatening Cuba and possibly the Bahamas this weekend as a major storm. More details to follow.
Non Weather Post.... I would be amiss if I did not acknowledge the tremendous political and historical event that took place in the U.S. on Tuesday. Congratulations to Barack Obama for his win in the Presidential elections. It is truly a special time in US politics and I felt privileged to be able to watch it unfold. I hope and pray that he can bring some much needed positive change and peace to the U.S. and the world. Locally all of the Vermont counties sided with Obama along with the northern NY counties of St. Lawrence and Clinton. Jefferson County, home of Watertown, N.Y. went with McCain.
