Took my lights down as soon as the New Years hangover dissipated. Did it in the usual fashion by tearing them off the gutters with a hockey stick and cramming them all into a large box so that November 2023 has something to complain about. I also look forward to April 2023 me complaining about having to pick out all the broken light clip pieces from the grass I will rake before putting the clippings into the green bin.

I just want it to either snow again or hurry up and melt completely, because almost all the snow in my yard is pretty yellow and stinky.

9°C in the SW

I'm surprised the sidewalks etc are retaining snow with the sustained mild weather

I think it's the low sun that has kept the snow/ice from melting at that rate

In feb/march it melts way faster under the same temperature

Sunny, looks to be a good day to fly my drone later when it warms up a bit.

Polar Vortex headed our way

Quote:
The Senior Climatologist with Environment Canada says the "balmy" weather we have been experiencing since Christmas may soon come to an abrupt end. David Phillips says their models are showing a polar vortex developing in Siberia and tracking towards western Canada.

But Phillips is quick to point out that this change in the weather could still be a few weeks away.

"Typically, when the polar vortex appears to begin to move, it takes about three weeks to finally get from Siberia over to North America," he clarifies.

He says things are about to change. Now, he stresses that we shouldn't see the same -60 degree temperatures that can be experienced in Siberia. Rather, we can expect lows in the -30 degree range. He notes this cold snap will likely envelope us for at least a couple of weeks.
Quote:
"Now, a lot can happen before it gets there, it could just disappear, it could go elsewhere," he points out. "But the models seem to suggest, and the American models are saying the same thing, that we're looking at February across the west as being colder than normal."

He says their maps are also showing February will have normal amounts of precipitation. Phillips reminds us that we are already into the back half of winter. He notes we are gaining nearly three minutes of daylight every day, plus February is just around the corner, which happens to be the shortest month of the year.

Phillips says when and if the polar vortex comes, it will probably produce the coldest conditions that we'lll see this winter, though still a long way off from the -45 degrees being felt today in Verkhoyansk, Russia.

"I hope I'm wrong, I hope the models are wrong," admits Phillips. "But they all seem to agree on the same thing, it's going to turn colder in the first days of February and continue for at least a couple of weeks."
