Good Morning:  Not a bad day here in Port Loring Ontario, this far.  Temperatures Waking up were sitting at -5.8 C | 21.56 F.

Forecast For Sunday: Snow, very unsettled weather for most of the day.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 is pretty well bare and wet throughout with a few icy sections.  I was reading an interesting article yesterday about how they are experimenting with a mixture of concrete and other things that keep the roads free of ice and snow.  To view click link below.  Amazing how modern technology is moving ahead.     https://finance.yahoo.com/news/conductive-concrete-ice-itself-keeping-234835569.html

Fishing Report:  This morning the old weather stick is saying the best times to be out there will be from 6:00 AM – 10:30 AM.  Then once again from 3:00 PM – 7:00 PM.  I give it a 2 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Good Luck!

Pain Related To Weather:  Today once again the weather will neither help nor hinder a person.  It’s like it is sitting there watching us.  Which in some ways can be a good thing.  Lets us do things on our own now and then.

Snow Accumulations:  Had about an inch overnight of light snow.

Good Morning Feb 6/2016

Good Morning:  Waking up temperatures were sitting at, -5.7 C | 21.74 F.

Forecast For Saturday: Snow, very unsettled. Will remain a touch cool but not so bad that it would cause a person to stay inside.

Snow Accumulation:  No snow overnight.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 does have some icy sections throughout but for most parts it is pretty good.  Traveling should be okay today but as always in winter care should be taken.

Fishing Information:  Today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM.  Poor day for fishing. I give it a 1 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Weather these days just isn’t cooperating.  But it will eventually improve.

Pain Related To Weather:  Today the weather will help nor hinder a person.  Just going to kind of sit there.  I guess that is okay.  Great day for a walk even though the sun isn’t shinning.  Fresh air is every bit as important as is the sun.  Put them two elements together and,  No Flu Shot Needed.

Tranquil Stream

IMG_20160103_115502908 IMG_20160202_104529625 IMG_20160202_104614174Came upon this small stream yesterday.  Just kind of mesmerized us for a minute or two looking down upon it.  Also one of a Pileated woodpecker at our bird feeder.  Might have to zoom in on it to have a look.  Lots of them in our area. Thought I would share.  GW

Good Morning Port Loring Feb. 1/2016

Good Morning:  Nice looking day here in Port Loring Ontario.  Waking up temperatures were sitting at -2.1 C | 28.22 F.   Great day to soak up some sunshine and breath in some fresh northern air.  Do that and no Flu Shot Needed.

Forecast For Today:  Might see some sunshine early in the day with temperatures warming up only a couple degrees from what it is now.   Great looking day with the sun coming up in the east.  You know my wife and I enjoy the sun rises more than the sunsets.  We go out of our way to find places that we can set and watch it break into a new day.

Snow Report:  Had about one inch last night with a total of around 1  foot on the ground in total.   Lot of melting took place yesterday.

Fishing Report:  Well with hunting behind us I see folks out on the ice doing a bit of fishing.  Today the old weather stick along with gathered data taken from our very own weather station right here in Port Loring is saying that the best times to be out there with pole in hand will be from 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM.  Then once again from 3:00 PM – 6:30 PM.  Not the greatest day for fishing but in saying that I give it a 2 fish rating out of 5.  One just never knows.

Aches and Pains Due To Weather.  Today there is a risk that the weather could cause a few pains.  So care should be taken.   Colder weather will be back with us later on in the week which in turn will help fight off all them flu and cold germs that are being spread around.  If sick my friends stay home.  Then once better build up your immunities naturally.

Around Town:  Myself I just been getting things back in order after our trip to Florida.  Got some painting to do then will get on with making my Native American Flutes for the year.  I like to have around 50 or so on hand come summer.  My wife she is busy painting up a few items of choice which will also be available at her art studio come spring.  So, yep we are keeping busy.  Busy but not in the sense of the word of it being a chore, as it isn’t.  We are doing things we enjoy.  Huge difference.  No better place to do this than right here in Port Loring Ontario Canada.  Enjoy your day my friends.  GW
