It was overcast and rainy earlier in the day and then about mid-afternoon the skies cleared and we got some sunshine.

Thursday's high at Vancouver Harbour was 16 C, the low was 9 C.

The season has finally turned the corner. Don't get me wrong; it's still cold. But the air just feels and smells different, sun is reliably warming on the skin even with temps near freezing. There's hope in the air.

Your picture above could be from the 2020s or the 1920s. The only giveaway is the cars,

-1C and sunny in Moncton at 8 AM, going up to +9C this afternoon.

Round two of the Q League finals begins tonight. The Wildcats finished off the Quebec Remparts 4-0 and now face the Baie Comeau Drakkar. The only team in the league I hate as much as the Remparts are the Drakkar. Should be fun.

I have my Wildcats jersey, team ball cap and cow bell all ready and waiting.

GO CATS GO!!!!!

:fuggire:

Incredible! The color of the sky, the road, the brightness, the profile of the mountain in the distance do not seem to be those of a city in Newfoundland in Canada, but of a small village in the arid Far West of the United States.

On reflection, you're right. I guess it requires cold, in our case. Things normally seem wet when it's warm, ha!

It seems that the sky and the air are filled with grains of desert sand. The golden color of the sunrise in your photo resembles the dawns of cities near a desert or, as sometimes happens in Sicily, the sunrises on those days when strong atmospheric currents carry sand from the Sahara across the Mediterranean

Yeah that’s a lot of wires overhead. Which I find makes for a more interesting look.

Cats made a statement in game one against the Drakkar last night, winning 7-0.

A very festive atmosphere in the Avenir Centre, especially in the third period. 6,000 fans left the building in a very good mood.

Kyle Dubas (general manager of the Pittsburgh Penguins) was in the building to have a good look at our star Caleb Desnoyers. He is now expected to go #3 in the NHL draft, and they want to nab him.

Currently +5C in Moncton and partly cloudy at 10 AM, going up to +9C this afternoon.

For as 🞵🞵🞵🞵 as our spring has been, the odd thing is still leafing out, which is nice.



Today is overcast and 11.

I'm leaving this video here for Tancredi. I'm certain he will appreciate it.

Video Link


If you can crank your video to 4k, it is certainly worth it.

MonctonRad, thank you for this beautiful video about Canada. A moving and evocative video that shows just how stunning and spectacular your country is, and how lucky you are to live in a nation blessed by nature and climate. Of course, Canadian culture, your strong sense of democracy, freedom, and respect for the environment have also helped turn Canada into a vast paradise on Earth. You will always have a place in my heart :saluti: ;-)

I always check this site https://www.usanpn.org/data/maps/spring in the spring. Too bad the data doesn't extend to Canada. I have some lilacs and honeysuckle in and around my yard, so I can compare my area to SE Michigan and it's pretty much dead on.

Yesterday and today were beautiful, nothing but sunshine and a high of 13 today, and 10.8 yesterday.
