Thaw coming to an end.. colder weather on the way

After another mid winter mild spell that featured thawing temperatures and rain, things will be cooling off this week as a colder airmass spreads over western Canada. Preceding the cooldown will be a fast moving clipper system that may bring a coating of snow (Tr - 3 cm) Tuesday night into early Wednesday across Winnipeg/srn MB.  Temperatures will be dropping behind the system for Thursday into the weekend, with temperatures more seasonable for late February (normal high -7, low -17C)  That will be good news for outdoor enthusiasts and winter events such as the Festival du Voyageur which has had to cancel several outdoor events due to the mild springlike weather. In addition, no major storm systems are expected through early next week over southern MB, so the colder weather should also be accompanied by dry and mainly sunny conditions. Good opportunity to finally wash that car again!

Rob's Obs website URL changing..


Please note that as of March 6 2017, Shaw will be retiring their members.shaw.ca web hosting services, which hosts my Rob's Obs website.  As a result, the URL for my Rob's Obs website (http://members.shaw.ca/mainweb/robsobs/robs/home.htm) and all related webpages will no longer be valid after that date. Over the next couple of weeks, I will be moving my website and webpages over to a server hosted by A Weather Moment.   

The new URL for my main Rob's Obs website will be
http://aweathermoment.com/robs-obs/robsobs/robs/home.htm    

I hope to have most of my webpages moved over to the Weather Moment server by March 6th. Note also that my www.robsobs.ca URL will be mirrored over to the the above URL as of that date as well.  Please update your bookmarks to the above URL if you would like to continue to access my site. Thank you.

(Of course, you can always google Rob's Obs anytime to find it the site as well)
