January 2018 weather



Jan. 30/31 – a bit more snow 5 cm, and a power outage



Jan. 23 – earthquake in Alaska, tsunami warning.

Yesterday we had a storm, rain, snow, hail. All school busses are cancelled for the 2nd day in a row!
Power outages across central Ontario.

We have a big rain storm, with lightning. You can see on the lightning maps.

Jan. 22 – There is a storm coming.


Jan. 21 – What a mess in B.C. 

A massive storm went through. You can see from the outage maps that there were tens of thousands who lost power. The winds were funneled up the straight and toppled trees.




Latest model runs indicating a threat for freezing rain in Southern ON during Monday evening storm system (Jan. 22). Exact amounts still indeterminate but a general area is beginning to come into consensus. #ONStorm #TOwx pic.twitter.com/y44IMHEIfw

The Weather Network radar and the government N.A. satellite were a bit of a mystery!

Jan. 10 – We're melting! A warm-up and rain. Only 25 cm snow cover today. What a melt.

We've 35 cm of snow cover. It's lovely.

Jan. 5 – darned cold, but not a record!



The Maritimes is a mess.


They call it a Bombogenesis in Boston.

There is 29 cm of snow cover.
The Maritimes, however, are expecting a weather bomb!


Jan. 3rd – Much warmer, a bit of snow, after Polar Vortex.
