After seven years of La Nina conditions, the surface temperature of the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean has warmed again, signalling the switch to a global El Nino event. Here is what Canadians can expect this El Nino winter.

Wait so our already warm and (relatively) snow less winters over the last few years are now gonna be even warmer and less snowy? Good thing global warming's not real and this is totally just a phase mother earth is going through or something.

I was talking to someone about what we do out here in the boonies all winter. One of the things I talked about was snowshoeing. While I was talking, I realized that it's been at least a decade since I've been able to snowshoe anywhere other than on the lake after it freezes. It's not that there is never any snow in the hills, but it never lasts long enough to matter.

our boonies must be different. i was 3 feet of snow deep in the bush just north of Muskoka all last winter. that storm at Christmas was brutal.

Wild. We just had 4 months of November last year. And none of those months were actually November
