Ottawa Blizzard Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Has been snowing quite steadily here in northeast Scarborough. Hoping that the heavier band currently over London and Woodstock moves into my region within the next couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzardof96 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Wouldnt be surprised if we made a run at 4" as well. Still plenty of returns to go and its snowing nicely. Already near 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Gust to 59 mph at Charlevoix MI shows potential of the approaching system to create a squall line feature overnight with brief S+ outside the snow belts and long duration S+ across southern Ggn Bay, possible 40-80 cm snowfalls across Grey, Bruce and Simcoe counties overnight and tomorrow. Would time this squall line for about 10 pm London, 1130 pm K-W and midnight to 0100h Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowstorms Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Finally got home, holy f*ck. I left school at 4pm from downtown and I finally got home. Took me 4 hours, so mad! Driving is horrendous. The city is at a standstill. About 8.2cm down in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driving is horrendous. The city is at a standstill. About 8.2cm down in my area. Amazing that 8cm (3") can bring Toronto to a standstill when you consider what Buffalo is getting. We Torontonians are so not prepared for winter. Toronto seems to live in constant denial that it's part of a country called Canada! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Torontonians are so not prepared for winter. Toronto seems to live in constant denial that it's part of a country called Canada! Toronto isn't constructed right and it can't even handle the smallest of weather extremes. If we got what Buffalo got, I dont even know what would happen to Toronto. People would think its an Ice age . The fact that it snows every year for 6 months, and yet people still drive and act like its the first time its snowed is absurd.

Not sure if I can remember a setup like this with minor squalls parked over KW for days on end. Squalls here right now as well. Love this pattern, shame to see it end. Probably my favourite November I can remember. It's been really something special! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'd still have to go with November 2002. I'd say it's about a tie between 2002 and this year for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Must have been some records broken last night/this morning. Guelph reported a temperature of -14C between 7 and 8am! Quickly warmed up to -9C an hour later but wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

on_wx Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 24cm of snow at YKF through November. They don't have data for October, so I used the Roseville station with 1.5cm on Oct 31 for a total of 10.03". Beautiful start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrisale Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Maybe a rogue cm or two with that meso-low that's progged to come in off Lk Huron? Should we start a thread? Flakes just started here, very small, going to be tough to accumulate much if this keeps up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzardof96 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 A waste of a decent LE setup here this morning. Inversion heights just aren't high enough to get Delta-T's into that favourable range. Later tonight as the WAA precip moves through we may get clipped by some light-mod returns with potential for some Lehs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
