The Overview

The southerly flow of weather will bring Spring-like conditions to Parry Sound Muskoka over the next few days. Of course, Old Man Winter has to deliver another message tonight with a wee snow front coming through. It will be wet and heavy, likely to melt quickly. The only weather dip is into next weekend, and just for the weekend. The roads are back to black for the most part. The trails, both horizontal and vertical, are in good shape. Wiarton Willie’s forecast is now close to reality – is he right?

The Radar Never Lies!

Our opening temperature starts at -24C(-24C) and it will scoot up to -0C (FL-4C) in the afternoon and then slip to -2C (FL -7C). The calm before the Spring…
The light breeze will come from the South today bringing back snow this evening and comparatively warmer air with rain likely on Monday. He breeze will swing to the West tomorrow.

Daylight Hours

Sunrise – 6:54AM, Sunset – 6:05PM. And the 6s carry us for the next few weeks! We are now in the final March to the 17th – equinox.

Road Report

Road report – The roads west of the 400 are showing as snow covered with plows out doing some maintenance. Travelling should be better today. With the snow front coming in around 6 tonight, it will make for some more difficult conditions fore a few hours. The sun, salt and traffic will clear this snow away fairly quickly tomorrow.

School Bus Status

School bus report – all quiet in the bus barn fore the weekend

Snowmobile Report

Snowmobile Trail Update – OFSC is reporting 27426 km of open trails. This new snow will provide some relief and has reopened some trails. The warmer temps will lighten the clothing requirement for today’s running. Maybe air conditioned suits would help!

Ski Report

The Ski Hills are still in great shape with nearly all runs and lifts open. Get your runs in today – rain tomorrow. The bases look good which should carry them into Spring Break. Detailed info at onthesnow.ca/Ontario.

Course Update

There are 39 – yes 39 days til green grass. Golf is this close – the heart will be racing knowing green grass is around the weather corner. The winds will be lifting the moisture formed in the melt to speed the shrinkage. Your clubs will know this and will want to hit a ball. Do you? Is your game ready for the golf season? We know you are getting restless to golf with your friends. The golf bug bite will continue to itch and needs to be scratched. While getting warmer, it is still not warm enough to get outside and play. Nothing beats a few holes of golf with your family. The hi-def indoor simulator is operating and ready fore you and your foursome. Or bring 8 and play a two-person scramble with 4 teams. Times are full today so book now for tomorrow! It is time to start getting the swing in shape fore opening day, or before you might be headed South fore a golf trip. Call the clubhouse 7056461060 to book your time.

The grass will be glad it has its snow covering in this chill. The melt has started to expose green grass. Old Man Winter got grumpy and decided to hide this grass – but this is only temporary.

The Simulator is Open!

When the golf bug bites and you can’t find a tee deck open anywhere, what do you do? You head to Muskoka Highlands where we have a state of the art hi-def simulator at the ready fore your game.

The Dogs

Dog Update – Hendrik is loving his space here at the highlands – and your boots when you come fore the simulator. He is a little impatient to see a golf course.Many visits begin now!

Wizard is in the Autism Assist program. The trainers love him as he is so huggable!
