Happy New Year

Parts of the world are ringing in the New Year already including Taiwan and Hong Kong. It has been a good year for me and for weather, much better on both accounts than 2009. What will 2011 bring? Who knows, as the seemingly endless grab bag of weather continues across Canada and North America. According to Environment Canada, 2010 was the warmest on record for all of Canada including here in Quebec. The wild swings in extreme weather are only expected to worsen a our planet warms up.

Today the freezing rain threat is over here in the south as temperatures have soared above freezing and will stay there right into late Saturday night. North and east of Montreal it remains slippery on highways especially towards Quebec City. Heading west all is well until northern Ontario where heavy snow and freezing rain is expected.

Thank you once again for reading and commenting on the 315 posts this year, and for pushing my hits over 100,000. It is a thrill to talk about the weather with all of you. My warm wishes to all of you for 2011 and please lets take the time to be good to each other. We have the power... Stephen B

Happy New Year!
