What Is The Weather Today II (No Mercury Jockeying)

[Xelebes]

New thread, as we are seeing performance issues. Previous thread got to over 50,000 posts. So we start anew.

Got to 11°C today. Expecting it to finally reach below 0 tonight. Still 2°C at midnight.

14C and rainy today. It was actually not too bad if you were outside as long as you had a roof under you head.

Low of 13C this morning.

The warmspot was Cheticamp, NS and Waterton Gate Park, AB at 20.5C. Looks like chinook winds for that Alberta place. Freezing in the morning, gusty wind switched from North to the SW and then once things calmed down, back to freezing.

Warmest low was Sable Island, NS at 15.4C.

[SignalHillHiker]

Very heavy rain and high winds overnight. It’s much calmer now but definitely not over.

[MonctonRad]

10C and light drizzle in Moncton at 10 AM, going to 12C with ongoing rain later today.

It was actually quite stormy overnight - a true nor'easter, which had been predicted but not really emphasized so, a bit of a surprise. Heavy rain and winds of 40 km/hr gusting to 60. Lots of leaf fall. Quite a few trees are now bare.

It appears Moncton will fall to the freeze list early Tuesday morning - the predicted low is -1C,

Speaking of the freeze list, Edmonton has fallen:

Speaking of the freeze list, it may have started off slow, but there's a likelihood that every remaining city on the list freezes within the next 3-5 days. Even Vancouver and Victoria.

Meanwhile it's currently sunny and 18 in St. John's.

[TownGuy]

Yep, we may have our first freeze here, overnight. There is definitely a nip in the air this morning.

Also some dramatic colours this morning between the dark clouds, lake, and brightly coloured trees.

[SignalHillHiker]

A much longer break in the rain than I expected - so went for a run up the Waterford Valley to see the fall colours. It’s been a gorgeous morning.

I always appreciate your photos of St. John's SHH - you know all the most photogenic places!

You also certainly have a photographers eye

Have you ever thought about doing a book? The cruise ship passengers might like to have a memento........

Useful for looking at old freeze lists, and all the excellent photos.

Aww, thank you! I gave it a half-arsed shot like a decade ago but decent photos from here are a dime a dozen; you need ambition to make it in a saturated market and I just don't care enough.

And it's a pretty photogenic city, minus the suburbs, which I genuinely rarely end up in anyway. I don't mind grit so there isn't much I shy away from, with three main exceptions: I'll rarely, if ever, take a picture that shows the Irving oil tanks on the top of the Southside Hills, the rock cuts for the Riverhead sewage treatment plant on Southside Road, or the blank side of the old Fortis Building on Water Street. Everything else, I can make it work with some angle or some strategically-chosen piece of foreground to block out something irredeemable.

Oooooh. That new, fresh thread smell.

It's been classic fall weather lately. Cool and overcast.

Beautiful pics, giallo - and happy birthday!

First freeze alert for southern Ontario tonight - EC has Pearson dropping to 1.

Forecast is actually quite warm this week:

13/18/19/21/19/10

Nice to get some mild weather before the long months of winter kick in.

[Nicko999]

7C and rainy today. Crappy day. Stayed inside. It is actually milder right now as the temperature has climbed to 9C.

Low of 6C this morning. Not much variation with all the rain.

The warmspots were St John's, NL and Sydney, NS at 18.4C

Warmest low was Sable Island, NS at 13.0C.

Beautiful image giallo, and Happy Birthday!

I went out to the ravine next to the abandoned train tracks by Evergreen Brickworks today (near my area of Toronto) to go replace a geocache of mine.
It was a walk made in the evening, so it started feeling cooler by the time I began my walk. (It was about 8C by then, the high was 11C today)
I spotted these funny fruits mentioned in the last few pages (other thread*), whatever they're called, and realized on the way home that a tree with this same fruit is very close to me

It's quite pretty out right now, with the maples and staghorn sycamores giving out some great colours

This funny little big leaved tree is growing on the old Pottery Road extension, (abandoned for over 60 years now) though I can't identify the species at all. Anyone know what it is?

I went home the way I came, along this railroad until I got to the two bridges that bypass this area to the north.

There are many 0s this morning across Ontario. Looks like someone will have to look into the data more closely, or wait until tomorrow to see if there are any casualties. So far London is the only one that’s confirmed I believe.

[MonctonRad]

6C and a light rainshower in Moncton at 8 AM, only getting to 9C this afternoon.

Clearing off this evening, which, in keeping with resultant radiational cooling gives us the perfect conditions for a hard frost tonight. Moncton will fall tomorrow morning, with an expected overnight low of -3C.

Both London and Windsor fell to the freeze list overnight, but I will refrain from updating the freeze list for now, as their temperatures may still fall slightly, and, Ottawa and Toronto are still at risk. Maybe Marty could do a deeper analysis later today........

I'll probably give it another hour or two before digging into the raw data. Coldest parts of their mornings should be over with by then.

EDIT: Toronto did freeze overnight, Ottawa nothing official yet but is hovering around the 0 mark right now. Need the next hourly observation update.
