What Is The Weather Today II (No Mercury Jockeying)

[MonctonRad]

11C and rain in Moncton at 9 AM, going up to 17C this afternoon. Clearing off this evening, but the overnight low will remain a balmy 12C.

Big changes next week.

There’s a chance not a single city makes it to November this year. But looking at the forecast, many of the Maritimes cities may freeze in the early hours of November 1st. Maybe even survive that night but it’s not a given. Kingston and Montreal will likely fall before the end of the month. And Vancouver froze this morning.

[MonctonRad]

The hourly observations show a minimum temperature in Vancouver of +0.5C, but, I believe you. If you want, you can update the freeze list with the actual temperature, or, otherwise, we'll wait for Marty and his "deep dive."

I just checked the link that was shared on a previous page, which I ended up adding to my bookmarks. It shows a low of -0.3C, which doesn’t show on EC’s hourly readings. But I’ll leave it to the “experts”.

Good enough for me then.

Kingston, ON
Montreal, QC
Charlottetown, PE
Halifax, NS
Sydney, NS

Just an FYI here are the last spring frost of the cities that remain:

Kingston, ON: May 18th
Montreal, QC: April 9th
Charlottetown, PE: May 23rd
Halifax, NS: May 23rd
Sydney, NS: May 30th

The difference is more than a month and half longer growing season. Just some perspective.

Montreal is now at 201 days growing season and considering Toronto and Vancouver had their run stopped at 196 and 197 days, it will have the longest growing season this year in the country.

Also funny Vancouver recorded a later spring frost (Apr 12th vs Apr 9th) than MTL and experienced a fall freeze earlier.

Yesterday was a stellar above average weather day for this time of the year in Halifax. Average for the day: 11/3. On the basin we reached 19.9. Low was 13.2 YHZ numbers: 20.8/11.7. In two days we will be below normal. Pics from yesterday...

Beachcombing on Navy Island.

A beautiful day.

[Maldive]

Perfect birthday weather.

Sunny and 25C (not a typo) in Metropolitan Beamsville ON... on my Mom's balcony.

[Nicko999]

Up to 20C at 10AM before the cold front arrived. Wasn't the abrupt temperature drop I was expecting. Still was 14C with full on sunshine at 3PM.

The raspberries are still going strong.



Roses are still blooming







Still some cherry tomatoes remain to be picked




Low of 18C this morning. Just incredible last night.

The warmspot was St. Stephan, NB at 26.3C. Absolutely nuts. It's 1.2C above the November provincial record with only 4 days away from that month.

Warmest low was Halifax (Dockyard), NS at 13.4C.

[SignalHillHiker]

A lovely evening. The moon is HUGE. Had a lovely chat with the uphill neighbour coming back from the superette. It’s the little things that keep me happy Checking out a new cafe in the Majestic with buddies in an hour or so.



EDIT: It was lovely. Had locally gathered chanterelle pasta. Simple but impeccable.

[harls]

Tonight's low 18 in Ottawa.

I am sure some kind of blizzard is coming soon. I can feel it.

[Metro-One]

To be fair that weather station is much more representative of Victoria proper and what most residents of the area feel.

I’m guessing that if you really wanted to cherry pick for frost free winters Victoria Harbour and the Esquimalt weather stations would be even better.

[Nicko999]

20C and overcast today. Another awesome. Drove with the sunroof open tonight. It is still 18C at 1AM. Dewpoint is above 15C as well.

Low of 15C this morning.

The warmspot was Windsor, ON at 24.6C.

Warmest low was Vineland, ON at 18.4C. Now that is a low I can get behind at this time of the year.

[Innsertnamehere]

High was 23 here yesterday. Put my shorts on one more time to walk the dog.

Overnight low of 16 - apparently the highest recorded for October 27.

13 and sunny today, so the warmth is gone - but still a nice fall day.

Cold front moves in starting tomorrow though. First single digit high of the year is predicted for tomorrow, and overnight flurries are in the forecast later in the week. Looking like our first freeze in Hamilton might be Monday night, with a low of 0 forecasted. If we miss it then, it may end up not coming until the middle of November looking at the 2-week forecast.

It’s officially that time of year when Lake Ontario is doing the heavy lifting in moderating temperatures. We always get nice warm, extended falls.. and pay for it with long, cold springs haha.

[SignalHillHiker]

The sun is coming out and Sobeys had one of my fave pizzas on special for $3.75. It’s a great Sunday!









I’ve washed everything I own And I’m having the first of my year’s worth of pizzas lol

[Tancredi]

The word "Restaurant" is written on the box but in Italian, "Ristorante". It also says "Pizza Vegetale" and "Pizza Spinaci", that is "Vegetable Pizza" and "Spinach Pizza". But the brand of the product ("Dr.Oetker") doesn't seem Italian to me. Maybe it's just an advertising reference to Italian cuisine

Oh it's not Italian. It's barely pizza.

We only have one pizzeria here that's truly authentic - Piatto (they've opened a few other locations elsewhere in Canada since). They're certified by whatever-it-is in Naples, so you can get a proper margherita and a few other things. Of course, most of their pizzas are fully North American in toppings.

These Ristorante ones have the second-best veggie options for store-bought frozen (only Good Baker is better, as it has a whole wheat crust and more veggies). So I got veggie mix, spinach, and mozzarella. I think only the mozzarella one is trying to replicate anything truly Italian - it even has pesto.
