..A blustery taste of winter..

 

With unseasonably cool Arctic air flooding across southern Ontario

today courtesy of a fall storm centered this morning just north of

Lake Huron most areas will be experiencing their first taste of

winter over the next couple of days.

 

Lake effect showers are already being generated off of Lake Huron

and Georgian Bay early this morning in a strong and chilly westerly

flow. Temperatures over the higher ground west and northwest of the

Golden Horseshoe have become cold enough early this morning for a

Few flurries to mix in with the showers at times. A few wet flurries

have been reported as far south as Kitchener and Windsor early this

morning. The lake effect showers are expected to become more intense

and extend further inland by this afternoon. In fact as the airmass

may become unstable enough for isolated thunderstorms to spark some

excitement over a few locales with the greatest chance of thunder

near the shorelines of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Brief heavy

Downpours..Strong and gusty winds..And even some small hail are

possible as a result.

 

As ever colder air continues to flood in temperatures inland from

the Great Lakes will drop to near or a little below freezing

Tonight resulting in a changeover from showers to flurries over the

higher ground in the snowbelts. This will set the stage for the

First accumulating lake effect snow of the season. The flurries may

become heavy at times with local snowfall amounts of 10 to 15 cm

quite possible by Wednesday morning over higher ground and lesser

amounts near the Great Lakes where the flurries will be very wet and

possibly mixed with showers. Some of the flurries may make it into

The Golden Horseshoe area tonight..Although no significant

accumulations are expected.

 

Motorists should drive with much extra caution as hazardous winter

driving conditions may develop in the snowbelts tonight. This could

result in a slippery morning drive for some folks in the snow belt

regions Wednesday.

 

Flurries will begin to become less frequent later Wednesday as a

high pressure ridge moves in and the winds diminish.

 

Listen for further statements. Additional information

may also be found by consulting the latest public forecast.

The next public forecast will be issued by 11 AM today.

[irishfield]

Shut up Cliff !!!! They haven't got it right yet for the last 2 days...but with my luck they've got this one right. It's raining right now..but it's not that cold up here yet. Think I'll go get the top all set up on the boat for morning though.....

 

The only good thing...I think the weather/temp drops gonna put them on the feedbag and tomorrow may very well be THE day. Water was still above 50F on Saturday...this may put it below finally.

Perfect conditions for the Muskie hunt on the bog this weekend . So, what do you say Cliff

[Bly]

Shut up Cliff !!!!

 

 

 

Thanks for that Wayne! Bad enough that it is cold and the winds are brutal AND there will be no fishing for me today..HE has to go and talk about snow.

[ccmtcanada]

Shut up Cliff !!!!

 

Hey Wayne...I'm at the office right now...I dont need to hear that here.

 

If I wanted that kind of treatment I'd just go home....LOL.

 

 

 

Seriously though, Bly gets irritated when I give her updates every 5 minutes on the weather...hehe.

[dsn]

Yeah looks bad.

[fatherof3]

didn't need to see that or the 5 minutes of wet snow last night,lol

[tipupesox]

I work in the snow belt area of Western New York. There have been some flakes in the air this morning but the roads are just wet. I guess they are talking about a few inch's of snow this evening. That is fine with me, we need precipitation to bring up the water levels on our local streams. It will be time to hunt for silver bullets this weekend.

[Squid]

Thanks for that Cliff!, not.

[blaque]

Love it, bring it on!!!

[keram]

Is it Simcoe frozen yet

[tonyb]

Finally temps are out of the double-digits!

 

It always sends the majority of anglers running for their slippers and blankies...leaving more fish for the rest of us who fish in the miserable weather

 

All we need now is some serious rainfall.

I dont care if it snows as long as there is no ice on the water. I wont put away the boat until I can no longer get her on the water.
