    Given the rest of the week's lookout, I can't see that snow actually delaying anything. It'll rain later in the day, then again on Sunday, which should deal the deathblow to Jack Frost....

    It is looking a bit better now... the forcast, that is. Who knows what will happen. Broken, you may be right.. it may not even matter. I will still consider myself at Nation on Thursday

    Waiting up until 1:47pm to get a better weather forecast for a day 5 days before you hope to get your first game of the year. That, my friend, is a sickness I share.

    Those forecasts always predict snow this time of year. As you can see, its often rain...can't wait for the thunder storms.

    It was snowing at one point.

    I hate to ask this but I gotta... with all the rain we've had today and what may be coming on Sunday, and possibly Monday, might all courses end up delaying their opening by a day or two to a week because of sogginess? All but maybe Nation and Calabogie may not have the ability to take 20-30mm of rain and drain fast enough...

    I'm hoping this won't be the case but......

    Quite possible. We will update the calendar as news comes in.
    In any event CALL AHEAD before heading out.

    Well just be glad that all we got was rain....feels nice that we didn't get snow and southern ontario did!!!

    Apparently the niagra escarpment was hit quite hard (lol). Feels nice to call my buddies (8 am yesterday) and say there's no snow in Ottawa right now, how 'bout you....

    I'd rather get the rain now. Means better conditions long term...

    I am sure that EagleCreek will also be one of the first courses open. It is one of the fastest drying courses in the city.
