The weather

There were several very frigid days during the month of December! For example, December the 18th, it dipped down to -30. Now you must be thinking I have a fantastic memory, since I somehow remembered the temperature from almost 3 weeks ago. However, after staring out my window this morning watching the snow fall down, I began to ponder to myself how much snow has fallen in Temiskaming so far this winter. This thought led me to take a look at the weather station website (check out the link on the right side of the page).

Just to remind everyone, the weather station site, uploads information from the weather station every half an hour. As well as, has 11 different senors, ranging from soil moisture, barometric pressure, wind speed and so forth. If you want instant knowledge of the weather in Temiskaming, specifically Earlton, I would have to say it's the first place to check!!

Those who have never stumbled upon the farm zone area of www.weather.ca (to be honest I didn't know it existed till 2 months ago--thanks Dan!), it is another great source to find all sorts of information about the weather in terms of it's importance to farming. Here is the link: http://www.farmzone.com/index.php?product=farmweather&placecode=NO014

P.S.-- As of yesterday afternoon, there is 33cm of snow in the bush!!
