The now Gander based meteorological forecasting office of Environment Canada did a reasonable job of forecasting for yesterday: Clear to cloudy, windy, to possible rain and snow.The same site is a bit confusing with yesterday’s hourly conditions, no mention of snow, or even sleet or wet snow.
Photo taken at 0800 hours, or 8 in the morning, EST. It does make for a nice brisk walk.
CBC radio news is reporting that 9 hunters have been stranded north of Nain in the Okak Bay area. A satellite phone call early this morning alerted Coast Guard to their plight. It seems their boat ran aground, the people managed to get to shore and were safe.
Search and rescue aircraft were dispatched and a later report said that the people were found and some supplies were dropped to them. VOCM must monitor CBC very closely, good for them.

Looking forward to all those beautiful photos of your house buried to the eaves.
Watch out for those Tasmanian diamond back red belly puff adder snakes on your little walk, mate.
I might have to worry more about the two desperadoes I'm going with!
