Just another day in paradise .....as the song goes.
Just stunning nice weather for the wet season.
Cool at night down to 22 and 27 and sunny in the daytime.

Cloudy and 0C in Canada's "paradise" ............... sorry, no song for us, compliments of Environment Canada's noting that we have Canada's worst weather.
I guess that if Elvis were still alive, he could redo "Blue Christmas" and make it "Blue Easter" .............. or maybe "Blue Canada Day" since we might still have snow on the ground by then. C'est la vie.

Sunny and +4C ............... the calm before the storm. EC says that we shall get 30cm by this time on Sunday, and the Weather Network says 45cm by this time Sunday. Either way, the strong winds will make sure we lose.

It must be spring on the westcoast as the street-sweeper just went down our street. Not that we had anything other than leaves to sweep up - a very mild winter, little snow, and no sand put down, which is the normal reason for the sweeping in the spring.
Currently about +7°C and looking to be another pleasant spring day. Trees are in bud, cherry and plum trees in blossom.
(We do have snow in the mountains still, but that's where it should stay. Dakota Ridge is a little recreational area close by - Dakota ridge - YouTube - and they still have plenty of snow for them that like that sort of thing.)

It is starting to snow right now ............. a few hours earlier than expected. The latest forecast is for 40+cm of snow, but I fear that we shall get more than that by the time we reach dawn on Sunday. When St.John's starts to issue warnings prior to the first flake of snow falling, we are in for a pounding. The last time they did that was when we got about 55cm in about 30 hours. We shall see what this storm brings.

The winds have died down a bit to about 50km/h. Still, there are drifts all over the back deck, some an inch deep and others up to my knee. We've gotten about 20cm so far with another 15-25cm forecasted for the next 24 hours. Another major storm of this size is being forecast for Wed./Thursday. It's as if Mother Nature is saying to us here in St.John's "April Fool!!!!!!!!!!!"
