-18C (windchill -28) in Moncton at 9 AM and sunny, going up to -8C this afternoon.

+3C tomorrow and +8C on Wednesday, We are now in the early spring pattern of "Battle of the Air Masses", where temperatures can swing wildly on a day to day basis.

Tancredi would love this. He'd be on his porch eating popcorn and watching it all unfold........

Seems like this big hyped up "torch" that certain Toronto based blogs were claiming would bring 20 degree weather will not be as intense as the models were showing. Above average for a few days, with lots of rain, then back to below average by the middle of the month.

If March comes in below average, that would be my breaking point. Would make it 5 straight colder than normal months.

This morning, friggin cold. -14 when I left the house, going up to -5. Very sunny.

7 day: -5/1/5/5/8/11/10

Overcast and a bit breezy. Safely back in Lisbon. Passed by Coimbra on the way.

Currently -1C in Moncton at noontime and sunny.

It was -18C at 7 AM, and the daily high this afternoon will be +3C.

Snow overnight, then rising to +8C later tomorrow, followed by another shot of cold air tomorrow night, then a protracted warm spell with temperatures rising to +9C.

I think I'm gonna get whiplash!

It must be maple sugar time...........


For Tancredi - near Geary in Sunbury County NB

Looks great, Have to wait another month before I get out there and Victoria.

Also Nice to see False Creak Rowing Club out. Nice to have flat water. We are still 2 months away from being on the water again.

-7 today here with new snow.

Another lovely one in Lisbon. Chilly in the breeze, but easily felt 25C around every corner.

One funny thing with the temperature anomalies is that the climate is warming, so hitting the old normal is a slight cold anomaly. A lot of stations warm by around 0.3 degrees a decade. The average of the 2020 normal period is 2005 so it's about 2 decades behind.

I'm surprised February was only +0.9 in Vancouver but February is barely winter here anyway, with March typically being overwhelmingly spring-like whereas around the country it's mostly either transitional or full-on winter still.

Only a skiff of snow overnight in Moncton, certainly less than a cm.

Now -1C at 8 AM, going up to +7C this afternoon. More melting on the way!!!

The week after is all kinds of awful however. Back into the depths of winter, mid-March.

March is always a roller coaster of Spring VS Winter. Doesn't surprise me. I think we will still have a few warm intrusions. But yes, the cold does make a comeback.

I think we should treat January-February in the winter like July-August in the summer. Definitely winter, or definitely summer. Doesn't matter if it's February 27 or August 29 - expect it to be cold or hot. A +10 daytime high (aka: Toronto's year-round average temperature) in late February is like a +10 overnight low in late August. A weird outlier, and it'll be back to seasonal soon.

March is like September. You should expect the beginning of March to be full on winter, in the same way that you go up to the cottage and swim in the lake at night on Labour Day. But things start to break in the middle of the month. It's not going to be hot, but it's not deep winter anymore, either. Those occasional +20 March days are equivalent to a first freeze happening in mid-late September. Not ordinary, but not extraordinary.

I think this is perhaps the best time of year to have above-average weather and the worst time to go below average. The sun is stronger and the days are a decent length.

Around here it's rare to get significant cold temperatures at this point but you can still have winter-like week-long stretches of dreary overcast weather, or very spring-like clear skies with double-digit temperatures.
