Im going to say coldest on the Ontario side (populated region) will be upper 20s somewhere around Algonquin-Timmins.

Ya, happens every few years so not crazy.

Someone in the Great Lakes region is getting low 30s and messing up their garden. I’ve got everything planted so I’m watching it close

I wonder if we're going to go right into non-stop 90s. The last week though has helped scratch the no heat issue here. Got 83-86F for a few days there.

Thanks! Yikes 1981 summer sucked for the longevity. Toronto has also recorded its first 80s the last few days now.

Not debating that. Also been warm here but more with the overnight lows. Similar to last summer which was above average but more because the lows not the highs. The above average precipitation and cloud cover is definitely helping that over here with the overnight lows.

Toronto has yet to hit 75F this year. Hottest its been is 71F @Snowstorms @michsnowfreak what would be the best site to see the latest Toronto has gone without seeing 75F? April was also the 2nd rainiest month since 1840 haha. Just stuck in neutral in winter and now spring.

Yep, May looks to be pretty rainy and no real heat.

Ya, pretty slow start here to the warm season.

Whats your average last frost? Here its going to be right about on schedule assuming we dont get another one. Also can I finally say the snow season is done haha. 26.4" was all YYZ got which is good for 6th least amount of snow since records began at YYZ in the mid 1930s. I ended up being right talking futility in mid January but I did get a bit nervous there with that late march 2-4" event haha

Ya, the good news is I can’t imagine next year is as bad as this one. Plus as you’ve mentioned before everything normally averages out. We had a good run the last few winters before this.

Pretty bad. As @Snowstormsmentioned 7th least since 1840. Which to me is worthy of futility discussion lol

@Snowstorms @michsnowfreak Even with that big push in late March YYZ is still at 6th least snowiest season on record at the airport. I don't know about you guys but to me thats going in the futile pile. 6th place has a cushion of about 2" before this winter would slip to 7th.

Im thinking white rain for south of 401. One of those where it might stick for 5 mins under heaviest returns on grass tips. 1-2" actually sticks north of 401-407. Im thinking 5-9" for the higher elevations of Orangeville-Shelburne.

This years biggest snowstorm of 4.3" happened on March 22nd which is pretty unusual. What was weird about this late snowstorm was it was dry powdery snow.

Toronto had nearly 2 sub 20" winters in 3 years back in 2009-10 (20.6") and 11-12 (16"). 2011-12 will probably be very difficult to ever get lower for Toronto as 16" is insanely low. Those stats might also be why I'm more prone to start discussing futility records since Toronto has been racking up a few recently (Last 20 years)

Coastal cities with 0-2” worst season can’t really talk about it until April haha

Yep, and to be fair you guys out west seem to have crazy low lowest snowfall. For example Ottawa is at 45” and it’s one of their least snowy winters ever so if Ottawa is at 15” come mid January to early February it makes sense for them to start talking about futility You guys out west I think you mentioned are 12”. So I see why talking about it early is pointless.

Ya, you guys get some monsters in spring. A lot of the prairies get some of their biggest storms in October and April. Calgary still averages 8-10" in April and 2-4" in May.

Didnt come true in the eastern lakes for number 1 lol. Most of us on this side are going to be top 10 least snowy winter. Could a surprise April snowstorm happen and push some of us out of top 10 100%. I believe heavily in stats so way below average by mid winter means starting to need a miracle to make a comeback. I guess in a sports analogy kind of way you might be the fan that never gives up until the end of the game haha. If my teams down 27-7 starting the 4th Im typically tossing the towel because chances of winning are down to 10% or less. Teams do come back and win 30-27 but it's pretty rare.

I was interested to see the distance between the two and it makes sense. Especially this season. Toronto regions western suburbs are 60 miles away from the eastern suburbs. Same distance as downtown Detroit to downtown Toledo

Toronto is at 26” which is right now the 7th least snow season. Assuming we get about 2” more it would keep it right about top 10 The east end and a bit further north GTA is probably around 30” but no official airport measurements Hamilton and west end GTA got wrecked this year. Top 5 worst snow season and sitting at 16” at Hamilton airport The last few years the snow-rain line has been about 25 miles further south so GTA has been getting good winters but Rochester and them screwed. This year the rain snow line moved a bit further north so the city is now separated as the eastern suburbs doubled the western suburbs

Ended up with about 2.5" here. Overall that puts it within the 2-6" that most were expecting across southern Ontario. I imagine someone in east end got 8"

@michsnowfreak. @SnowstormsTheres going to be some wild difference in snow totals across GTA Pearson will end up middle ground. Looks like 6-10” east end. 4-6” Airport and 1-3” for my place and west end. Hamilton and my place is now pretty much locked into seeing one of the worst winters snow wise ever. Still up in the air with Pearson

Looks like you guys are starting to be due as well. That’s 15 years since you’ve seen one.
