What Is The Weather Today II (No Mercury Jockeying)

[BradFromTO]

Been a pretty warm Fall so far in southern Ontario and Quebec, especially so in Quebec.

Toronto Pearson has yet to register a high below 10.

However, this will all change by the end of the weekend. Toronto will have highs below 10, and it looks like Montreal will join the freeze list.

Currently 17 and raining, going up to 20 with a scattered showers.

Tomorrow, going up to 22 with a possible humidex reading.

7 day forecast:
20/22/20/11/8/8/7

Kelowna is safe for now, but EC projects it will freeze before midnight tonight.

The freeze list is great, nice work! Its been fun watching it grow and see how winter sets in across the country.

Surprised to see Kingston still there. It’s on a Great Lake, but close enough to the Canadian shield that they more easily get hit by the cold air coming from the north. The winds were probably favourable the night the rest of Ontario froze. Montreal is on as island so they typically get more delayed there, so that one isn’t really surprising. The rest is coastal cities except for Kelowna.

[TownGuy]

Montreal and Kingaton have the same average low for late October, +1C. Both would be equally surprising.

A light dusting of snow on Vancouver's local mountains last night. You can see the webcam on Mt. Seymour here:

The only safe cities by the end of the month will be Halifax, Sydney and Charlottetown. Victoria and Vancouver are borderline.

Beautiful and sunny here... but only +1c / +34F

Doesn't feel right.

[SignalHillHiker]

Lots of sun throughout the day with sporadic cloud. It stayed pretty cool, with some periods of gusty winds, but fine overall.

On most years, both Montreal and Kingston freeze before Toronto and Windsor. Montreal does have some surprising years though and it often ends up making it to the final 5 or so. London tends to freeze earlier than all of those due to the lack of large body of water in the immediate vicinity.

My observations from the last few years in this very thread anyway, nothing scientific .

[TownGuy]

I guess at the outset Montreal would be considered a dark horse but not out of the question.

A rare Wednesday photo from me. Very mild today, overcast.

[LFC]

There is a definite chill in the air around these parts, Snow isnt too far up the hills around the Valley.

Hit a high of 6c today and mostly sunny, and have stayed off the freeze list, but its looking like the clear skies tonight with dip the mercury to around -3c.

[Nicko999]

19C and mainly cloudy. We did however have some beautiful sun for about an hour or so.

Low of 11C last night.

The warmspot was Vineland, ON at 22.0C.

Warmest low was Harrow, ON at 16.1C

[Bcasey25raptor]

Kelowna is at -3c, it has fallen

Nice temperatures lasting till Saturday then they go back to normal which was inevitable. Good weekend to head to the Annapolis Valley.

[MonctonRad]

Sunny and 13C in Moncton at 9 AM, going up to 18C this afternoon. 17C tomorrow and 22C on Saturday, both with sunny weather. Since we have had out first frost, I presume this can be considered Indian Summer (if this term can still be considered politically correct).....

[Arrdeeharharharbour]

Last evening's sunset plus a few pics over the basin this morning. We dropped to 12.4 at 6 am and by 9 am we were at 16.8.
