Hmmmm…..Just when you thought it was gone for good, winter is making a comeback in Ontario.

Warnings

North Bay – Powassan – Mattawa

Snowfall warning for
North Bay – Powassan – Mattawa issued

Very late season heavy snow overnight and Saturday.

An intensifying low pressure system tracking up from Illinois across Lake Huron into Eastern Ontario will bring a late season heavy snowfall to Northeastern Ontario.

Rain ahead of this system will move in this evening then change over to snow by morning as brisk northeasterly winds draw in cold Arctic air.

Latest indications suggest that 15 cm of snow will fall in a 6 to 12 hour period across North Bay and Sudbury and possibly as far north as Earlton by Saturday afternoon.

The snow will taper off to scattered wet flurries in the wake of the storm centre later on Saturday.

Motorists should be prepared for dangerous winter driving conditions from very low visibility in heavy snow and possible snow accumulation on the roads.

Darn and I just put my snowblower away, well…………I refuse to bring it back out, just going to have to melt on its own.

Help For Kidney Stones.

For those of you that have had a kidney stone, well………..you know what pain is.  Thankfully, there are natural ways to greatly reduce your risk of having this most common disorder of the urinary tract, by simply drinking lemonade.

Skip home-made or store bought lemonade if it’s loaded with sugar. Instead, sweeten lemonade to taste with healthier choices — honey or natural sugar.  Honey is what we use.  So there you go, can’t hurt to mix up a cool drink or two once or twice a week, sit back under your most favourite shade tree and enjoy.  Not only tastes good, but might save a whole lot of grief down the road a ways.  Remember, the store  stuff mixed, is no good, best would be real lemons, an squeeze your own.
