As Canadians we talk about the weather relentlessly, I just talk about it a little more! I hope to provide useful information to my family, friends and all those who simply enjoy talking about the weather. While I try to include information of interest from all over North America, my primary region of concern is the St. Lawrence Valley of Quebec, Ontario, and New York, as well as our neighbouring regions. This Blog is dedicated to my late father for inspiring my interest in weather.

More rain - cool weather
This years weather is slowly beginning to resemble that of last summer when every weekend through June, July and August was cool and wet. When September rolled around it was as if we had no summer at all. The various models that forecasters look at are showing no major warm up in sight. Temperatures last night dropped to 3C in Kemptville and 6C in Montreal. It was cool for May, but a stiff northeast breeze eliminated the frost threat at least in this area. Regions to the south in the Adirondacks and Green Mountains dropped to and in some cases below 0C, and frost was reported. We have warmed since to 7C and clouds are on the increase as the next weather system is poised to move east and control our weather for the balance of the week. Rain and thunderstorms can be expected from late tonight into Friday. This system produced 25-50mm of rain along its path from the southern Prairies across northwest Ontario. We can expect a little less here, but it will be wet and cool.
