Beautiful sunny day today. It got up to 15C., but it was very windy. Tractor trailer flipped over on the Burlington Skyway, that`s how strong the wind was. And of course they closed both bridges, side streets were a parking lot for miles . A section of my back fence got knocked down
On the plus side, I washed 2 cars, changed the oil on one car, and changed the blower motor on the 330 again, I think for the 3rd or 4th time

I often rode the Skyway from Oakville on my way to Niagara Falls but the winds were nothing compared to crossing the Mackinac bridge in Michigan.

I believe you.
The winds on the Burlington Skyway can get quite strong sometimes.
I've had my car get blown halfway into the lane next to me on a few occasions.
There are some people that avoid the Skyway when it's really windy.

Winter Weather Advisory here today, with a snow forecast of 2-4 inches. The scarecasts are calling for 3-5 inches, and my last look at the European model forecast said 2 inches.

On the bright side, it will be dark outside at 7:00 AM on Sunday morning after the clocks spring forward.....

I just read a weather forecast synopsis saying that a bomb cyclone may happen this weekend somewhere in the northeast.....

We're supposed to get brushed by that tonight and tomorrow. Maybe an inch of snow. Cold until Saturday, then back to normal spring temps from Sunday on. Last gasp of winter, I hope.

Read we were supposed to get 1-5 cms (2in) of snow this weekend and a bit of cold, I think the weather people are trying to hype a non event.

This last week has been nice and the snowbank mountains are disappearing. Sunglasses can finally make an appearance again until daylight savings. I'm noticing more birds around too, still no robins though.
