Nice sunny day folks with temperatures up near 30 F so great day to head on out and soak up some of that sunshine. If one could get out of the wind in a real secluded spot, you would be able to almost take your shirt off. The day before yesterday I could start feeling the warmth from the sun again. Feels good too and nothing is better for ones health. The cold is what is needed to get rid of the flu bug and the sunshine prevents you from getting it. No flu shot needed. Always surprises me with so many flu shots being handed out that the flu in this country is getting worse. That in itself should tell folks something. Will it? Not likely.. Anyways, have a great day my friends.
Good morning. Weather wise it will be somewhat windy today with snow flurries this morning. High will reach up to near 36F. Winds SSW at 15 to 25 mph. Might get about another inch. We did have around ten inches or so through out the bush but with the melting yesterday we are now down to about six inches or so. Tonight will remain windy with cloudy skies clearing near morning. Low tonight will reach down to around 16F. Winds will be from the West coming in at 15 to 25 mph. The sun rose behind some clouds this morning at; 7:59 AM & will set at 4:53 PM.

For those wanting to do some fishing, the old weather stick says the best times to be out there will be from; 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Then again from; 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM. Fair day for fishing.

Corporations like mainstream media, multi-billion dollars pharmaceutical companies, and the cancer industry don’t know anything about health. They don’t want to know and they don’t need to know. They are businesses and they need to make money. They use fear and the promise of a symptom-free life as motivators. They also have to serve high interests and brainwash the population with theories, which change according to the drug or toxic therapy that’s being marketed and brings the most profit at the time.

Nothing is more healthier than a good brisk walk every day; does the mind and body both good and if the truth be known, other than good eating habits nothing more needs to be done.

Well finally the new weather station for Port Loring is up and running. Took us the better part of yesterday to get the sensors situated and sending data. I will add things manually here at the Blog till Karl has the graphs and added features installed onto the Local Service’s Boards Man Page. Lot of work now for Karl to get things just right. But the cold outside work is finished and everything is working great. On another note we will see some pretty cold weather coming to us here in Port Loring with in the next 10-15 days from a Large Arctic Front that is bearing down on us. I also predict a very cold February. So winter is upon us folks, time to bundle up if going outside, along with keeping the home fires burning. Snowmobiles and ice fishing folks will be happy. Great to be alive though. Isn’t it? Also I will start adding the best times to be out there ice fishing; brought to you by our weather stick and some old ways added in; starting in a few days. Just need to get a few more things together to complete that task. Enjoy your day my friends.
On another note my son Karl that works at NORAD started installing a new weather monitoring station for Port Loring. It is being set up here at my home. This station consists of one Data Logger, http://www.valcom-guelph.com/products/VEDASII.html One Transmitter; http://www.valcom-guelph.com/products/VGOES-HDR.html One antenna; http://www.valcom-guelph.com/products/Crossed_Yagi.html One GPS unit for signal assessment, along with the new Met Station One (MSO) weather station which combines five of the most popular meteorological measurements into one simple, economical package, allowing for efficient and accurate comprehensive weather monitoring. Karl has everything set up as of now, all but the sensor which will be added once it arrives with in the next few days. It will be quite the thing for Port Loring now having a weather station of its own. With folks being able to check daily of what is happening in and around our community relating to our weather conditions. All Data relating to our weather will be uploaded to our Local Service Boards Web Site http://www.loringlsb.com/ every few minutes, along with being stored for future reference. Also we will be working on a local forecast which will be added as the station progresses. I have been collecting weather data for most my life using nature as my main reference book, along with some simple scientific devises. Just something that I have enjoyed doing. Now with this new high end station it will sure be a treat, along with being a great asset for our community. Thing is we don’t have a station that is accurate pertaining to our own conditions being so far off the beaten track. Our data comes from stations in and around North Bay & Britt Ontario. Here in Port Loring, weather can, an is most of the times quite different than what we are being told. The station that is being set up here in Port Loring will be every bit as good, if not a touch better than the government stations that are out there today. Reason being we will be monitoring it daily along with adding the most efficient sensors that are out there in todays market. Now for most, you are probably saying. OK…what is this going to cost us? Well other than a few dollars for uploading data to your web site and a few dollars more for making a program to handle the weather data on your Local Services Boards Web site; it will cost you; nothing to speak of. I myself along with my son Karl and Valcom the company that my son is employed with has absorbed every cent. It is something that my son and I have always wanted to do and have now done so. It will be our contribution to our community. There is other costs of maintaining the equipment & station how ever, along with adding new sensors as time goes by. So we will be adding a donation button on the web site. This will leave things up to you, if you like and enjoy having your own private weather station, then it will be your own decision if you want to contribute in its future, simple as that. For more information on the weather station feel free to contact me; George Walters at [email protected]

As A Writer here is My Favorite.
Dear Editor,
I am eight years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says “If you see it in the Sun it’s so.” Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?Virginia O’Hanlon.
115 W.95th St
When Virginia O’Hanlon’s plaintive letter made it to his desk in late September, he could have easily passed the letter on to some anonymous staff writer for a quick innocuous reply. But something in the letter made him pause. Perhaps, he thought, this was an opportunity to say something meaningful about life, dreams, and innocence in an increasingly skeptical and commercial world. He seized the opportunity an this was his reply.
Answer:
VIRGINIA, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except [what] they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s, are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as if there were no VIRGINIA S. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unsee-able in the world.
You may tear apart the baby’s rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, VIRGINIA, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Claus! Thank GOD! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.
I was asked what my feelings were relating to Religion and Christmas from one of my readers. Giving it some thought I came up with this explanation and I hope it puts your interest to rest.
For myself that is non religious, I would have to say that I have always worked things out for myself, right into today. For this reason, I am called a “freethinker” because that’s what I do – I think freely, rather than believing. People of religion usually inherit their beliefs from their families and for most parts folks have a misconception relating to people who are not religious. It’s not that I am going against religion, nor am I one that take things for granted. In reality it’s just the opposite, as my heart is running over, with the love I have for Nature, being together with my loved ones, love for all my animal friends and most of all, the health, well being and happiness for my family, others and myself.
So, Merry Christmas everyone, especially since the world didn’t end on Friday.
Good Morning & Merry Christmas To You All. Today we will see some sun and clouds with a hight of only 12F. Winds will be coming in from the WNW at 10 to 15 mph.

Well snow is still coming down and I suppose I will be heading out to clean out the driveway in a bit. Should try and get the bulk of it cleaned up as it is wet and it is going to drop down to some pretty cool temperatures in the next few days. So that could freeze what I do have in the driveway now and that would be a problem to remove. Highway 522 has been plowed but it is quite slippery with icy spots. One should take care if out traveling today. Enjoy your day my friends.
Well if you have been reading my posts here at the blog you would have read where I predicted a storm could be heading our way. Well turns out my prediction is going to be true as today they just issued a Major winter storm warning. Today it will start off being windy with a few clouds. Then we will have a few flurries developing this afternoon. High today will be around 26F. Winds will increase and come in from the East at 20 to 30 mph. Chance of snow this afternoon around 60%. I expect around an inch or so. Then tonight we will have the brunt of the storm with heavy snow and strong winds. By morning we could have up to 12 inches. I say could as it all as it all depends on a few formalities, like which way the winds will prevail from and barometric pressure. Temperatures will stay about the same as daytime temperatures with a Low of 24F. Winds should remain coming in from the East at 20 to 30 mph. So I would think we will defiantly have a white Christmas folks. Tomorrow will bring more snow also. Barometer is holding stead at 29.21 in Hg. The moon will rise at 12:08 PM & set at 12:24 AM.

Still got a wee bit of snow left after the mild temperatures we have been having. Might get a few flurries before Christmas, not exactly sure if we will have a full white Christmas this year though. Hope so. Highway 522 is bare and wet. So would be a good day to head on in to town if your are thinking in that direction. Myself I would like some sunshine, lots of it, as it makes a fellow feel alive and raring to go. I suspect we will see a bit tomorrow. I had two visitors yesterday, took a picture of them feeding. Two Pileated Woodpeckers. Took a picture for you to view. Tea time here my friends so have a great day. 
Looking at all my collected data from nature and other. Colder tendencies are in the forecast through the remainder of the month over all of Ontario. Another storm possibly looms for Christmas Day through December 28, affecting
us here in Port Loring, along with all of the Northeast. And a third system may impact activities New Year’s Eve.

Today we will have freezing rain mixed with some flurries. High near 30F.

Low will head on down to 28F. eventually. Winds will continue coming in from the South East at 10 to 15 mph. Could get up to 1 to 4inches by tomorrow morning. Highway 522 is icy, wet and slippery, so one should take extra care and if at all possible I would recommend staying home today. I am sure you can find something to do, like maybe baking up some cookies for those unexpected guests that seem to pop in this time of year. Up to you. Hunting season is over so no more reports. I will start up with the ice fishing times once the lakes freeze over. Will be awhile though I suspect with these warm temperatures.

Finally some sunshine this morning. I have to say I am seriously looking into following the sun down to the sunny south next winter.

News For Port Loring
Not to much to report here this morning. Things are quiet around town, normal for this time of year with Christmas getting closer every day. Myself I like it and enjoy the quietness. Yesterday I went for a half a days walk in the bush seeking out medicines that nature has to offer. Some items this is the only time of year that they can be obtained and I have to say I did quite will in stocking up my supply. Also I enjoyed the time out taking in the best that Port Loring has to offer. Tranquility, fresh air and peace of mind. Enjoy your day my friends.
