ccmtcanada Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Down here in Whitby is changing over to rain now. Got maybe 3 cm of snow. Will be gone tomorrow with temps rising to 11c and 15mm of rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Raining most of the day here in London, ON. Sleet in the morning/early afternoon and changed to rain. A real mess outside. I just "shoveled" [more like pushed the slush] my driveway though because I have no idea what to expect, and hate having that layer of ice below the snow when you shovel.

irishfield Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Snow.. snow and more snow Brian. Plowed well over a foot yesterday afternoon... and we have about 7 inches of new stuff in the yard now that has dropped since noon. Waiting to see if we get any freezing rain as it's easier to leave the snow.. let it rain.. and then plow it. Tomorrow's going to be a mess.. and trying to get to Toronto General Monday am doesn't look like to much fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigugli Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Light snow in the morning. Freezing rain since 1pm. This weather is just a little too reminiscent of the crap we used to see during a Nova Scotia winter. A good blow would give you 1-2' of snow from the north, then the wind would shift bringing warm air from the gulf current, and that brought freezing rain and rain, followed by another dip and more snow. Was normal to be stranded 2-3 days along the eastern shore. They lifted my uncle by chopper to get him out on the Bonnie the one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 They lifted my uncle by chopper to get him out on the Bonnie the one time. I spent alot of time working alongside the Bonnie Bruce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigugli Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 I spent alot of time working alongside the Bonnie Bruce. That was an age ago now. I still remember when they beached my uncle. All his skills and qualifications were deemed worthless in the civilian world. Despite the fact that when the weather got really nasty, civil aviation would need his help to talk the planes in.

lew Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 civil aviation would need his help to talk the planes in. Watching those Trackers take off & land on Bonnies flight deck was something I never tired of. Very repetitious but the skill of those Air Wing pilots landing those planes on the small deck in rough seas was just unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very repetitious but the skill of those Air Wing pilots landing those planes on the small deck in rough seas was just unbelievable. And they used to have to do it blind at night and in heavy fog. There would be some nasty prangs on deck at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whopper Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) It's been raining here al day. I can't remember getting this much rain this time of year.

misfish Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Thats a great picture Lew. Looks like were done here with the storm. Clean up has begun and the main road outside looks nice and clear. Guess I,ll go fishing for a bit. Maybe catch one or two, of those open season herring.

lew Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Temps were sposed to rise to +5 here over night but it didn't happen & it's still below freezing and now their saying it's only going to +1 later today. Still got freezing rain coming down and there's a 1/4" of ice covering everything. Cold temps coming tonight and staying for awhile so I guess the ice coating will be here for awhile too. I've got about 250 miles to drive today so I sure hope the salt trucks have been working on the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Plus 1 here Lew, going up to 2 with rain, you should be fine coming out this way. Thanks for the update bud, appreciate it. 99% of the time I don't worry about weather but long drives on icy roads can definitely be a nuisance.

Rich Clemens Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Little ice and freezing rain yesterday am - then switched to all rain. More rain today then the temps start dropping. Possibly below zero for us later in the week. At least this rain ain't snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishfield Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Looks like the warmth off the lake saved us here. The freezing rain, on all radar I've watched, made it as close as the concession road just one over closer to town than us. Guess I'd better get out there and plow the potato snow!
