New rail speed limits to be based on temperatures

Railways wanting to run under new limits must develop winter operation plans

By Dave Bedard, GFM Network News November 10, 2020

Given the odds of weird temperature swings happening somewhere in Canada at any time of year, railways will now instead be required to slow their trains’ speeds based on how cold it is outside at the time, rather than a date range. Federal Transport Minister Marc Garneau on Friday announced a new ministerial order meant

La Nina to bring colder, drier winter

By GFM Network News, Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm October 5, 2020

MarketsFarm — There’s a La Nina poised to exert influence on the coming North American winter, according to Drew Lerner, senior agricultural meteorologist for World Weather Inc. in Kansas. A La Nina generates colder-than-normal temperatures, as opposed to the warm temperatures garnered from an El Nino. Both weather phenomenon can be found over the Pacific

Prairies can expect far better harvest weather this fall

By GFM Network News, Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm September 18, 2020

MarketsFarm — Prairie farmers are likely going have good weather over the next few weeks, according to Scott Kehler of Weatherlogics. “We got a pretty significant warm-up across most of the Prairies through to the end of September. It should be fairly warm and not too much in the way of precipitation,” he said. “At

There's really no such thing as a 'normal' high

By Daniel Bezte February 19, 2019

Maybe it’s the cold weather, or just that I’m getting a little tired of winter, but a couple of my weather-related pet peeves have raised their ugly heads once again and I feel it’s my responsibility to address them. No, it’s not the argument about wind chill, I already tried to tackle that topic; this

Forecast: Nice early-spring weather to continue

Issued March 12, 2018: Covering the period from March 14 to March 21, 2018

By Daniel Bezte March 15, 2018

Last week’s forecast played out fairly close to what weather models predicted, with a few minor exceptions. Western regions saw a little more cloud and occasional light snow last Wednesday and Thursday, while temperatures to start the week were a little cooler than forecast, thanks to a weak backdoor cold front that moved in from

Cool, dry canola keeps best when left alone

For farmers who plan to keep canola in bins through the hottest months of the year, a new Prairie study suggests that to manage bin temperature, less handling is better. Having set out to study how best to manage higher-moisture canola over the spring and summer, a team from the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute (PAMI)

Weather forecast: Looks like a nice start to winter

Last week’s forecast played out pretty close to what the weather models predicted. Winter arrived across southern and central Manitoba late last week, with the season’s first significant snowfall hitting central and eastern regions, while the southwest received just a dusting. Temperatures then fell to around average or even a little colder than average over

Warm weather returns to the Prairies late next week

Last week’s forecast once again played out fairly close to what was predicted, but with a couple of timing issues. For example, the cold front forecasted for last Sunday was a little slow and didn’t push through until Monday morning. This forecast period is going to start off on the warm side, with high temperatures

This forecast period is starting off much like the last one. The general flow of the atmosphere is fairly zonal, which means a strong west-to-east flow. Sometimes it’s coming a little out of the northwest, which results in slightly cooler conditions, and sometimes it veers a little southwest, which means warmer weather. The trouble is,

CNS Canada — Despite recent mild temperatures that are forecast to hang around the Canadian Prairies for the next week, a weather expert says a colder bias will return during the latter stages of the month. “It will take a while for it to come back, but it will come back,” said Drew Lerner of
