Good Morning:  Hope everyone is well on this fine Saturday Morning!  Temperatures waking up were sitting at 2.6 C | 36.68 F.  Not to bad.

Forecast For Today.  There is a Freezing rain warning in effect for: Port Loring – North Bay – Powassan – Mattawa – West Nipissing & French River.  So far nothing has occurred here in Port Loring.  But that could change at any moment.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 is bare and dry so far, but if the freezing rain begins travelling won’t be good.  Kind of just have to watch things and see how they pan out. One of those days.

Snow Report:  No accumulations over night. Melting rate is around 4 inches a day.

Ice Fishing Report:  Today the old weather stick is saying that the be best times to be out there will be from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM.  I give it a 5 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Great day for catching a few. Being this time of year you should be keeping an eye on the thickness of the ice before venturing out on it. In some places it doesn’t look like it is melting but it is.

Around Town:  Quiet day here hardly a car moving up and down the highway.  Being so cloudy along with the time change folks are sleeping in a touch.  On another note, tea time here.  Just regular English Breakfast this morning. Of all the regular teas it is the one I prefer the most.  Enjoy your day.  You can reach me George Walters at [email protected]
