We have already talked about it but for me it is always incredible that in such a cold and stormy area like Nova Scotia there are apartments with such large balconies and terraces. These outdoor structures are more typical of Mediterranean and tropical climates. You're lucky

In general, I'd say the wind up here is similar to the wind at ground level with the exception of at the corners of the building which can be avoided by stepping outside or inside of that relatively narrow windflow. Prevailing winds change seasonally here so it's too soon to know what an entire year will look like. We'll be away most of the winter so I'm considering aiming a web-cam so that I may monitor where snow drifts might sit. Bedford Basin is approx. 15 km inland from the open ocean and is surrounded by higher land.
At 11 am it's 12 c under mostly cloudy skies and heading for a forecast high of 14 c.
