Mathieu: "Are doughnuts bagels?"

It's a normal Monday today, with the exception that we have to go to the dentist at 3:00pm to get one of Sabrina's tooth fixed. Mathieu and I do stuff together today, as well as some stuff by ourselves. I update the Win7 machine I have on my Mac for I haven't started it in a long time and Windows does need its updates. In some ways I have the best of three worlds... On my 27" iMac I run OSX, Win7 and Linux at the same time. It's really cool.

And we're expecting...

Winter Storm watch

Summary

Snowfall amounts of 15 centimetres are forecast over these areas Tuesday. Freezing rain following this event could give 2 to 5 mm.

Details

A low pressure system developing over the American Midwest will move through the province of Quebec along the St. Lawrence River Valley Tuesday evening and overnight. Associated snowfall will give significant amounts over areas near and north of the St. Lawrence River beginning Tuesday afternoon. Meanwhile, the mild air with this system will cause snow to turn to rain over the southern parts of the province. This transition will result in a period of freezing rain over areas near the St. Lawrence River. Please refer to regional public forecasts for details pertaining to each region.

At least we're probably getting some snow. At this moment, Bromont has 86/113 runs opened, and Tremblant has 94/95. They're expecting up to 30cm of snow tomorrow.
