Seasonable

This morning's weather photo

Yesterday was a cool day here...no doubt the remnants of the arctic air mass that caused all of the havoc in Ontario over the weekend.Someday they will learn how to deal with a little snow and not bring everything to a grinding halt.
We had a few brief flurries yesterday,more so in the evening,leaving a light dusting on the ground.Temps were near 0 for the day and dropped into the minuses in the evening.It was quite chilly overnight with my thermometer reaching -10°.Today is expected to be more seasonable at around +3°.
There's a possibility of snow later in the week....no amounts available as of yet.
