So much for snowshoeing this weekend…

January 09, 2013 @ 12:00 By: gordon Category: Weather

Ottawa forecast for January 11-13, as of January 9I have been looking forward to going snowshoeing this weekend with a bunch of friends for a while now, but having just looked at the long-range forecast for this weekend, I’m not at all confident that’s going to be possible.

As you can see from the graphic I clipped from the Weather Office’s website, there’s probably going to be freezing rain on Friday, which will put a crust on the snow. Then it’s supposed to go up to 11°C on Saturday, which is going to make the snow really sticky, and that sucks when you’re snowshoeing.

Nuts.

And this is going to set the canal back quite a bit, too.

Nuts again.
