Quiet Weather Fore the Next Couple of Days, Muskoka

The Overview

The radars are pretty clear at this point for today and tomorrow. A bit of a change from yesterday. On Sunday there is a large wet front is headed up the Ohio Valley towards the Sault. It is pressing against a cold front bringing snow to the leading edge and back into rain later in the trail. This front could miss us to the west. But time will change this in some direction.

The Radar Never Lies!

Our opening temperature starts at +2C(FL -1C) and it will rise to +3c (FL -1C) in the afternoon and then fall to -3c (FL -7C) overnight.

The winds are from West SW at up to 15kph for the next 48 hours. This is not showing any snow streamers on the radar yet as it is likely too warm.

Course Update

All sorts of excitement in the hood as a Hawk Owl continues to inhabit our property. A rare sighting!

Golf is infectious – why wait for the next 104 days to play. The hi-def indoor simulator is operating. The smiles and chatter all indicate a great time. Our simulator league starts December 1 – with 3 practice rounds before the new year. And the one round on the same course for everyone every week through the end of March. Prizing, skins – the game is the same, but the walk is shorter.

There is a wonderful blanket of snow on the course which will could be its layer of protection with this changing weather. More snow today is better fore the course. We need a lot to absorb the January melt that happens every year.

The Simulator is Open!
