iceman Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 1 Dec. snow/rain mix +3C hey Bonjour...... while many other areas have had some real snow here it has been just a bit. Literally a few light dustings and they did not last. Today we woke up to almost an 1" of snow which is now mixed with rain. Many other regions have had much more snow. Right now snow is not what we really need. We need the cold to set in and stay to freeze things up. So......"Let it Freeze, then Let it Snow". Need the ice and frozen ground before snow. Standing By. Stay Tuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance You can't go wrong with either pick usually. I will say that you never know. While usually very sweet by first week in Feb, every year is different. March may be warmer for sure.

For a good freeze up of the river and all the swamps around Shawinigan, this looks like the perfect forecast. Hope its not just a wishcast. https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/14-day-weather-trend/quebec/shawinigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
