Tracking long range precipitation for Southern Ontario using weather models, satellite, and meteorological data.
Friday Briefing
As you can see, the radar map is pretty much clear for Southern Ontario. We have a unorganized band of snow coming off Georgian Bay but nothing significant in the way of snow accumulations or low visibility. The snowsquall will end overnight in most areas making way for a clear crisp night. A cold weather alert is in effect for some of the northern areas around Toronto. Just because we are not on that weather alert, it does not mean it will not be cold. The average temperature for Friday night into Saturday will be -20 celsius with a colder wind chill.

The clipper storm that was talked about in the last few posts will no longer be a discussion topic for Southern Ontario. This storm has dissipated almost completely on all weather models. The best chance we have for this storm is some passing flurries which could accumulate to a third of a centimeter.

The storm for the dates of February 5 - 8, 2010 is still a puzzler, however I believe the models have a estimated track for this storm. The painted graphic above is the three tracks this storm could take. My personal idea for the track would be A or B. The second picture is a graphic from the GFS model. You can see the storm as it forms in Florida and prepares for the journey northward. Even in that graphic, I believe that the storm will develop a little more west than what the GFS currently predicts. I will monitor this storm closely and keep you updated.
