Happenings In And Around Port Loring Ontario Canada

Good Morning.  Well things sure cooled off through the night.  Waking up we were sitting at, -26.1 C | -14.98 F

Forecast For Today:  Changeable, then mending.  Will see some sunshine. Will remain cold all day.

Snow Report:  We had another 1/2 inch last night.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 is covered with light snow with some icy sections throughout.  Care should be taken but travelling should be good.

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 4 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Good Luck!

Around Town:  Not much happening.  Stores are all quiet.  But in one sense that is  good thing.  Gives one a chance to draw in the energy that will be needed for summer,  Which isn’t to far off.  I am thinking things will start to warm up  within the next two weeks.  After that the snow will be leaving us quite quickly.  So you had better put that snowmobile to good use if your into that sort of thing.  Tea time here, Turmeric is on the menu for this morning with a touch of organic honey.  Enjoy your day, stay warm and safe.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]

Around Town;  Quiet for a Sunday morning,  Hardly a car moving up and down the highway.  Wife and I went to North Bay yesterday to pick up some supplies that we were in need of.  Had a great day.  Roads going in was snow covered but on the way home they were bare and dry.  Stores in North Bay were doing a brisk business with customers lined up at every check out.  North Gate Mall was also quite busy.  In the produce department Florida Grapefruit are for sale now.  Nothing can beat the taste than grapefruit from Florida.  I won’t buy them from any other place.  If your into eating healthy this is the time to get them. Enjoy them while you can.  Tea time here English Breakfast with a touch of Chaga this morning.  Should keep my body happy for the whole day.  Very good to help one relax then bringing on energy that you never knew existed.  Enjoy your day.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]

Happenings In & Around Port Loring Ontario Canada

Good Morning:  Well another cold morning here in Port Loring.  Waking up temperatures were sitting at -25.5 C | -13.9 F.

Forecast For Today: Changeable, mending with some sunshine.  Will stay very cold though throughout the day and tonight.

Highway Report: Highway 522 is pretty well bare for most parts but it does have some hard packed ice and snow sections.  Travelling today should be good.

Snow Report:  No snow accumulations overnight.

Ice Fishing Report:  Well no problem with the ice not being thick in our area these days.  Today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 8:30 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then again a bit later from 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM.  I give it a 3 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few.  Good Luck!

Around Town:  Not to much to report here this morning.  Being so cold folks are staying in where it is warm.  Can’t say I blame them. Looking out the window at other homes in the area one can see the smoke lazily rising from the chimneys, then being so cold edging towards the ground.  Kind of brings contentment to ones mind and soul just watching it.  Sign of living in the north my old Grandfather used to say. Miss that old feller.  On another note, in a week and a couple days we are back into March.  OK by me as I am ready for some front porch sittin’.  So with that I will head on into the kitchen and pick up my cup of teat that my wife so lovingly makes for me each morning.  English Breakfast all on its own this morning.  Enjoy your day, stay warm and safe.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]

Around Town.  Not to much to report here this morning. Business’s are slow which is to be expected this time of year.  Things though will pick up in a few weeks with spring entering into the picture.  I see the seed catalogues are out for spring, been getting a few in the mail.  Nothing can take ones mind of the hash winter days more than browsing through one of the catalogues.  Just the pictures of the flowers and vegetables seems to brighten ones day.  Words and pictures have a way of doing that to ones mind.  Tea time here, Chaga is tea of choice this morning.  Enjoy your day, stay warm and safe.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]
