Around Town:   With hunting season upon us not much is happening other than…hunting.  Most of the town are out there with family and friends trying for that trophy buck and meat in the freezer for winter.  I my self enjoy being out there and think there is no better way to take in what nature has to offer. That and food for winter what could be better.  Highway 522 is bare and in some places wet.  Snow is pretty well all gone in our area with the warm weather that is upon us now.  Enjoy your day my friends.  Stay safe.  You can reach me George Walters at…  [email protected]

Information, Weather & Hunting Times For Port Loring Ontario Canada

Good Morning:   Well a touch cooler this morning waking up to -6.4 C | 20.48 F.   With all the snow and cooler temperatures kind of makes a feller feel like winter is closing in on us.  But then again it is November.

Forecast For Today: Fairly fine, possible snow early.  We will see plenty of sunshine today and into tomorrow also.  Temperatures will warm up to around 9 C / 50 F tomorrow which should take care of most of the snow we have now.

Hunting Times:  This Morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM.  Then again a bit later from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM.  Prime times will be… 9:00 AM, 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM.  I give it a 3 Buck Rating Our Of 5 For Seeing A Few.  Sun rose this morning showing off at 7:02 and will set at 5:05.  Feeding time for the deer will be 1/2 hour before dusk.  Winds are coming in from the…North North East and at the moment calm.  They will rise a touch to around 6 MPH a bit later on this morning.  Good Luck!

Around Town:  Highway 522 is bare for most parts throughout but there are a few snow covered areas here and there.  So care should be taken if out and about.  With weather being as it is most furnaces here in town are perking away.  Some wood, some oil and some gas with a few others included.  Have to say it sure feels good too. Our new wood furnace is sure a treat thanks to Jamie Mathews for hooking things up and  getting it burning like it should.  Does take some getting used to after the old one we used to have but the way things are going it will sure save on the wood and oil bill this winter. Hardly takes any wood at all to heat this house now. But then we did a lot of renovating over the past three years.  Insulating the whole house in the walls has helped immensely also. Was a very good investment.  So my friends have a great day and if possible try and get outside and soak up some of that sunshine and breath in that fresh northern air.  Good for your constitution and what ails

Port Loring Ontario Canada, Weather, Hunting Times & Information

Good Morning:  Well had quite a snow fall here for Halloween.  One to remember I would think.  Temperatures waking up were sitting at -2.6 C | 27.32 F.

Forecast For Today:  Fairly fine, possible snow early.  Things will warm up to near         45 F / 5 C starting tomorrow and carry on for three days or so.  So the snow we have now won’t last for to long I wouldn’t think.

Hunting times:  This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from…7:00 AM – 1:30 AM.  Then again from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM.  Winds are coming in from the North North East and at the moment calm.  Prime times to be on watch today will be… 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM.  I give it a 3 Buck Rating out of 5 for seeing a few.  Sun rose behind some snowy clouds at 8:00 AM and will set at 6:06 PM.  Feeding time for the deer will be half hour before dusk.

Around Town:  So Halloween is behind us.  Had a few young ones out gathering up treats drop by last night.  Weather sure wasn’t the greatest for them but seems it takes quite a bit to keep them away from their yearly candy and things.  We sure had some snow up here in Port Loring yesterday, around 6 to 8 inches.  The poor old trees that was taking their time dropping their leaves are just hanging from the weight of the snow.  But it sure does look pretty out there.  Highway 522 is bare for most parts but it does have some icy sections with some snow covered areas here and there.  So if heading into town or just for a drive, care should be taken.  Took a few pictures to show those that doesn’t have snow yet what is in store.  Click Pictures To Enlarge & Have a Great Day.

Around Town:   Highway 522 is mostly wet with a few icy sections and some snow covered areas here and there.  So care should be taken.  Seems every year with the first snow fall comes accidents.  Reason being folks aren’t used to it and figure they can drive at the same speeds as when the highways are dry.  So my friends leave early to go where ever your heading and drive slower. Doing so you will have more control of your vehicle which will keep you safe.   The fringe benefit of all this is that you can now take in what nature has to offer.  As with all the snow hanging from the trees it is just beautiful.  Amazes the mind one could say.  But keep your eyes on the road too.  Enjoy your day my friends, stay warm and safe.   You can reach me George Walters at… [email protected]
