I had this thought about the weather. What if the first snow happened every year on the exact same date? For example, the Winter Solstice. Weather completely predictable. That is hard to imagine here in the Norther Hemisphere.
One of our major activities is "forecasting" the weather and then "commenting" on it. We do that as an accepted social gambling game activity - it is unpredictable, changeable at a moment's notice, and often a surprise. Who knows who will win the predictability challenge each day?
Do you want predictable? Think Ecuador - that's what I read. The weather in Ecuador " is consistent throughout the year. Since the country is at the equator, the sunshine is also steady and hence, these conditions make the country one of the places with the best weather in the world.' The predictable weather in the world is in regions of either the polar high or the tropic low.
At the opposite end of things, the most unpredictable weather in the U.S. is Rapid City, South Dakota. The Great Plains and Upper Midwest are the most unpredictable areas in the world. The other places in the world are: The Monsoon Coasts of Asia, the British Isles and the Mediterranean Basin.
With climate change, the weather has become a complicated search subject. I wondered if Ontario has the most variable weather in Canada. Instead, the topics cover the question of whether things are normal variability or variable due to climate change.
But it doesn't matter as it turns out that Atlantic Canada has the most changeable and most variable climates anywhere in the country. The worst weather is accorded to Newfoundland and Labrador. Volatile weather conditions and frequent storms. Yikes.
The prediction of the Weather Network is that we have our first snow on Friday, November 29th and it goes for a whole week. I hope that weather forecast is incorrect.
Look at the back garden in 2018 after a massive snow fall. Paths for Dezi and Baxter to get around - otherwise they might 'drown' in the snow. Below that is the shed in the Toronto garden, a tranquil scene in comparison.
