Prince George, B.C.- As far as winter is concerned,   it hasn’t been too bad in Prince George,  but that season  comes to a close this evening.

Spring officially arrives in Prince George at 9:30 tonight  but the robins, a sure sign of spring, have been in the  city for a few weeks now.

Spring like weather conditions over the past few weeks have  sparked early  street cleaning efforts in the City  and the motorcyclists are  already on the road.

Environment Canada’s forecast for the season  suggests warmer than normal temperatures but  no  firm  prediction on what can be expected when it comes to precipitation.

When the old haymaker is burning bright in the afternoon its downright pleasant. Between 1:00-4:00 the temp.seems to be just about right. Out where I live saw a Robbin about 3 weeks back.

Yay!

HALIFAX – Sunday may be the official start to spring, but Atlantic Canadians are bracing for another blast of wintry weather.

Environment Canada has issued special weather statements for Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, P.E.I. and Newfoundland and Labrador.

The national weather forecaster says a low pressure system is expected to develop near the southeastern coast of the United States on Sunday and then rapidly intensify as it moves north.

Significant snowfall is expected on Monday, with up to 20 centimetres expected in parts of New Brunswick and P.E.I.

In Nova Scotia, snow will change to a mix of freezing rain, ice pellets and rain in some areas.

Meanwhile, significant snowfall and strong winds are expected for Newfoundland late Monday and into Tuesday before the storm moves towards Labrador.

Geese on the Nechako in V’hoof, yep it’s spring.
