Seeing as how we have an ongoing and close relationship with Mother Nature; an update on the weather of late.

On a serious note the weekend was cloudy and windy with wind chills down around -17.

The sun yesterday had everybody commenting on what a great day it was; the wind chills were up to -12.

Meanwhile the dweeb weather man on CBC Here & Now had a parka with hood up; the wind chills were -10 in Sin City, what a wimp.

With TB still being an issue in the north LGH has installed an X-ray machine at the clinic in Nain.

This week will see the first X- rays done in follow up work for people who had contacted TB in the past. The machine will remain in Nain with the technicians flying in to operate it when needed.

Two Labrador north coast volley ball teams had mixed results at the regional championships this past weekend in Churchill Falls.

Nain men Huskies won their 2A tournament and will move on to the provincials while the Hopedale girls Nanuks finished second in their group.
