March goes out like a lion

The month of March came in like a lion and it looks like it will go out like a lion too.

On March 1st, the lowest temperature was registered at -29.6 Celcius.

While March 31st isn’t that cold, more snow is in the forecast.

Environment Canada says anywhere between 2 and 4 centimeters could fall.

Geoff Coulson is with Environment Canada and says more snow can be expected this week.

“There’s yet another Colorado Low that could be influencing the weather Thursday,” states Coulson.

“This one taking a similar track as the current one and also potentially spreading snow into northwestern Ontario as well.”

Coulson adds that the current Colorado Low is actually south of us, but is generating snow for the region.

“Lots of moisture. I mean, some of the biggest impacts will likely be more in northeastern Ontario, where they could be looking at a messy mix of snow, ice pellets and freezing rain in areas like Sault Ste. Marie, towards Lake Nipissing and north.”

The Easter long weekend doesn’t look any better with more flurries throughout the weekend and snow in the forecast for Saturday.
