Crop Quality A Weather Casualty – for Sep. 16, 2010

By
Hurricane Earl received a lot of news attention as it slammed into the Maritime provinces. Not to minimize the power outages and the damage from fallen trees, but the wet weather in Saskatchewan last week is probably causing a lot greater dollar damage than what Earl inflicted.

Cool, Wet September Ahead? – for Sep. 9, 2010

By
Another August has come and gone and from a weather point of view I think we can label this month as “variable” or “the month of change.” If we look strictly at the numbers for the month, both Winnipeg and Dauphin had a slightly warmer-than-average month.

Warm Start To Summer To Continue

It seems like it’s time to revisit my prediction for a hot, dry summer! I have received a fair number of emails and comments pointing out how far off I was with my prediction for a hot, dry summer… although, I did hear someone say, and I have to admit it was a youngster pointing
