Weather Forecast

Just got in from work tonight and thought I would check the weather forecast.

The next two days are going to be cool. The wind has picked up tonight. Looking forward to some snow. Hoping it settles but very unlikely. Love the cold weather as much as I love the heat. It's nice seeing the seasons change.

Weatherzone says

Tuesday Rain areas extending eastward during the morning. Showers to follow with isolated thunderstorms and hail. Snowfalls extending down to about 500 metres (we are 680 metres) later in the day.

Wednesday Mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Isolated hail and thunder and snow above 500 metres gradually contracting to the higher ranges. Cold, gusty south to southwesterly wind.

Stormchasers says

MIN TEMPS 1 to 3°C MAX TEMPS 4 to 6°C lowering towards 0 to 3c later in the day. Increasing wind chill conditions.

Looks like we are in for some very cool weather. I read that this is the coldest winter in ten years. I think we have forgotten what it is like to have a cool winter.

Looking forward to Erica and Paula coming up for a coffee tomorrow morning. Missed out on our holiday get together with all the girls and our kids.

Edited to add. OMG check out the minimum temps forecast for the weekend in our area.

Better buy some thermal underwear at this rate.
