…and golf! It really is October, right? I wonder if any researcher has ever run a statistical analysis of the correlation between weather conditions on E Day and the success rate of incumbents? Share and Enjoy: Trashy, Ottawa, Ontario

The Sunny Way? This is, of course, one of Aesop’s fables and a favorite story of Wilfred Laurier. It’s a story about persuasion being superior to force, to working with others being superior to shutting down debate, and for strength …

A. An over reaction?
B. An under reaction?
You be the judge which is worse.
I’d take A over B any day. New York City officials made the right call. As does anyone who errs on the side of caution in situations like this.

Nicole, Alvil, April, and I went a few minutes out of Regina on Dewdney Ave. last night, and got many photographs of the aurora from the massive solar storm that was hitting the planet’s magnetosphere and other above-ground interactive surfaces to produce a thrilling light show. The whispy lights were visible to the south of […]

When a cold snap or a blizzard hits the US deep South, those people who are climate change skeptics are quick to denounce “global warming” or “climate change” as being fake, or hooey, or so on.
I’ve not heard that same cla…
Trashy's World: Why was everyone surprised by the storm in Ottawa last night?
@OttawaDaddy pointed this out on Twitter this morning. I too am amazed at how few people used the Environment Canada radar site to see the storms approaching after receiving Twitter warning & retweets! Check it out. Easy to use, folks. This is what it showed this morning. The basics are: orange and red – bad. […]

The weather was perfect on July 2nd, just like I told people it would be. It was less perfect today, but still awesome. The hail stones that were half the size of golf balls were problematic, at least one hitting my car in an apparently non-damaging way. Now April and I head off into our […]

… is a buncha crap, should consider this forecast for Inuvik.
Yes, this is “weather” as opposed to “climate”. I know the concepts and terminology very well…. but if these patterns persist, then there will be some major social, economic and biological upheavals in the North.
And I don’t believe we or any other polar nation is […]

Imagine. The sun has long gone down. It’s a warm evening, about 85F. Then, within 20-minutes, the temperature shoots up almost 20 degrees to 102F. WTF? Exactly.This happened in Wichita, Kansas yesterday a…

It’s not often I have so many days go by without blogging, but it’s been a busy week. Along with buying a motorbike, we had a trip to Winnipeg for the U2 concert to undertake. We didn’t want to take our Sunfire to Winnipeg until it got some service, so we rented what was supposed […]
