Before finishing that off, it cleared nicely for the Canada Day festivities yesterday. Broken cloud, nice little breeze. A parade followed by a BBQ, games of chance, ball game all were held at the ball park. Fire works later.
So now; the TW Ministers office is saying “due to unavailibility of chopper to visit all communities this Wed and Thurs Minister Huickey will now come to Nain on Wednesday, July04”. Those Blackberries eh?
The plans seem to be that the Minister and four others will overnight in Nain, no indication if Minister will get to other communities on this trip.
Here is the weather forecast for those two days:
Wednesday NightChance of Rain. Partly Cloudy. Low: 41° F. / 5° C. Wind SSW 8 mph. / 14 km/h. Chance of precipitation 20%.
ThursdayChance of Rain. Overcast. High: 43° F. / 6° C. Wind ENE 6 mph. / 10 km/h. Chance of precipitation 20%
Still no sign of any boats getting through to here anytime soon. Maybe some smart accounting types could do cost-analyses of the extra cost to consumers with all this food being flown in. It would seem the airlines are doing great out of it for sure.
Lots of icebergs out there, if the Northern Ranger does get up here soon there should be amazing sights for the passengers.
