Our first snowflakes

Canadian Geese crossing into New York Sate. Do they know something we don't?
All good things must come to an end, and so as I was watching the Red Sox loose last night 3-1 to Tampa Bay, my denial ended and I realized summer is now gone and winter is on the way. A big thank you by the way to Boston for the effort. I know only too well that familiar pain of loosing a Game 7. Anyone who has been a Red Sox fan for more than 4 years knows that feeling. So despite TBS and despite Tampa Bay, oh my the greatest team ever, the Sox will be back for another season next spring. Oh and one final note on the ALCS, I hope MLB never gives TBS broadcast rights to another series again. Enough said...

SNOWFLAKES? A strong cold front is just to our west this morning. It is forecast to move across the region today and tonight with 15-25mm of rain. As the front crosses the area and moves into Quebec, gusty northwest winds will develop and temperatures will lower to the single digits. There is a good chance of flurries from mid-morning towards the end of the day on Tuesday. No accumulation is expected, in Kemptville, Ottawa or Montreal, but just seeing the snow will be depressing enough! It is still looking like the end of this month and beginning of November are going to be very cold. Computer models are hinting at snow around Halloween. It is still early, but definitely worth keeping an eye on.
