Happenings In & Around Port Loring Ontario Canada

Good Morning:  Well nice morning here temperatures wise.  Waking up it was sitting at -9.7 C | 14.54 F.

Forecast For Today:  Could see a few inches of snow this morning, tonight and into tomorrow.  But it will be short lived with warmer weather moving in for  next week.  Could even get up to 10 C / 50 F next week for a few days.  That should take away a lot of the snow that has accumulated over the winter.

Snow Report:  No snow accumulations over night.

Highway Report:  As of now Highway 522 is pretty well bare and dry throughout.  Travelling should be pretty good for part of the day.  Could deteriorate depending on how much snow hits our area.  As I say it will be short lived.

Ice Fishing Times:  Today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 11:30 AM – 2:00 PM.  Then again a bit later on from 4:00 PM- 5:30 PM.  I give it a 5 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Good day for fishing.  Good Luck!

Around Town:  Hardly a car moving up and down the highway these days.  Only ones that does make an appearance are the locals.  The ones that didn’t head off south to the warmer climates that is.  Good to see so many taking advantage of what should be.   Life is short and time cares for no one.  Tea time here.  Turmeric is on the menu this morning, good for what ails ya and gives a person the energy to stay on top of things.  Enjoy your day.  You can reach me George Walters if you so wish at [email protected]

Happenings In And Around Port Loring Ontario Canada

Good Morning:  Well not to cold this morning in comparison to what we have had.  Waking up temperatures were sitting at -13.3 C | 8.06 F.

Forecast For Today: Some Snow and a bit of sunshine, very unsettled.

Long Range Forecast:  Looks like this will be the last week of cold weather.  After that things will be warming up quite quickly.  We could see a winter storm and some cold weather Mid-March.  But it will be short lived.  Winter is about done with us here in Port Loring.  OK by me.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 as of now is bare for most parts throughout. Travelling should be OK today.

Snow Report:  No snow accumulations overnight.

Ice Fishing Times:  This Morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM.  I give it a 5 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Good day for fishing.  Enjoy it while you can.

Around Town:  Still very quiet.  Stores are slow other than the folks selling fuel.  Snowmobiles keep them busy, reason being we only have two places you can buy gas here in our area. One here in Port Loring and One in Arnstein. Today just going to take things easy, work on this new health book and just let the day take me where it wants too.  Rough life huh?  Chaga coffee is on the menu for this morning.  Can’t get much better than that.   Enjoy your day and stay safe.  You can reach me George Walters if you so wish at [email protected]

Around Town:  Our last trip to Florida I happened along an old lumber yard, so of course being who we are wife and I, we went in to have a look around.  Way back in one corner of a room I spotted a few old bottles of Coke.  I asked if I could look at them and the old feller said.   “Sure,” and opened up the door even further so I could have a good look.  Here is what I saw and thought I would share it with you.  Click Pictures to Enlarge.  I would think you will be impressed as I was.  Great collection and every bottle unopened.  Enjoy your day, stay safe and try and soak up a wee bit of that sunshine.  You can reach me George Walters if you so wish at [email protected]
