Also…..the school authorities have to take into account both current and forecast conditions inside and outside the city. The most problematic forecast is for rain/freezing rain. Seen times schools closed due to icy roads outside city but rain inside with temps hovering around 0C +/- a degree or so

2) I would bet that the package this am would have indicated that most of the snow had already accumulated with perhaps an additional 2 cm. Wind and temperature not a major factor. Suspect any decision re possible closures would have rested on current/expected road conditions

This is good news Jimmy. Keep our picks. Move Lorhei up to the wing. Big body, soft hands and ability to score. Sounds exactly what the forward group needs.

I did see a RFP in the Fall re the Centennial Building refurbishment on a site that publishes a comprehensive list of projects in Canada for contracted bidding purposes. I think there is still some tortoise-level activity behind the scenes

ECCC will use the CoCoRaHs (volunteer observing network which I participate in) observations from this morning to verify snow depth at 8 AM. Most Freddy obs were reporting a trace at that time

Technically it would be 8 am AST or 12:00 GMT. Also consistent with NOAA/NWS definition in the US.
