Default Crispy cold this morning (-40 and not wind chill!)

Note that there is an error on my previous post. Click on the climate link,
and when the web page pops up, type "maniwaki" (no quotes) in the Location
field. Maniwaki is the nearest weather reporting station (upper air station)
to my place (about 50 klicks away, same climatic regime)

Perry:

Summers are quite nice. Spring arrives here with a bang! For example, last
spring (Easter) we had a temperature of about 5 C (41F) (still had about a
foot of ice on the lake) and then, about 4 days later, we were up to 28C
(about 82F), then, several days later, it snowed....

To answer your question, summer temps in this area a daytime highs near
24 C (75F) and nightime lows around 15 C (60F). Temperatures have gone as
high as 38 C (100F). Water temps in the lake in July run about 20C (68F)

so
very nice to jump into!

To check out the climat normals, click on the following link. Gives you an
idea what the averages are in this area (note all info in metric)

Thanks again, Pierre, for making me feel toasty warm at -6F this

morning!


What do your average summer temperature run during lake-swimming

weather?

Hey all...

Another cold one this morning here in southern Quebec. 8am minimum
thermometer reading of -40C (-40F) and with the sunrise, up to a

balmy -39C.
At least its sunny out and no wind yet, but we should be getting some

steady
nothernly winds up to 20 or 30 kph later this morning, so more

horrendous
wind chills this afternoon. Time to throw another log on the

fire....and
to
think, that in about 4 months from now, I'll be swimming in the lake

(which
currently has almost 70 cm of ice thickness! ...about 30 inches...I
think...)

Pierre
