T Oronto a Well loved though Oft mistrusted weather Tome landed on Newsstands this week predicting the coming Canadian Winter will be Cruelle than usual even catastrophic. The u. S. Based Farmers almanac the Bible for Small talk champions says in its 2009 Canadian edition that most of the country will experience numbing 40 degree celsius weather or worse. Its also calling for heavy Snow in the Eastern half of the country with British Columbia the Only Region expected to be drier than Normal. A senior climatologist with environment Canada however says its any ones bet As to whats in store for canadians this coming Winter. But one thing David Phillips does know is that theress absolutely no science in the Bone chilling Farmers almanac forecast. Having said that sometimes our predictions Are no better Canadas weather go to Guy said thursday. We never really advise people in our seasonal forecast to bet the family farm on it because it is a bit of a Crapshoot especially Here in Canada. Still Phillips said environment Canada uses a massive supercomputer to crunch data such As sea surface temperatures ice and Snow conditions and soil information for 10 Days before forecasting weather for a coming season. The 192 year old Farmers almanac meanwhile which has published a Canadian edition for some 40 years makes predictions two years in Advance of publication. Its enduring Weatherman who goes by the pseudonym Caleb Weatherbee uses sunspots planet positions and tidal activity to calculate forecasts. Editor Peter Geiger claims the guide is accurate Between 80 and 85 per cent of the time. People give us credit and i think after about 192 years weave been doing this people Are relatively confident in our predictions and quite frankly so am i he said. If somebody does not want to believe it they dont have to. Environment Canada does not release its official Winter forecast until dec. 1, though its second round of rough seasonal predictions will be released next week. Phillips said one of the Best predictors of cold weather is whether Al Nizo or la Nina has Canada in its grips and neither phenomenon has yet emerged. It Means the country is presently in Neutral territory a situation Phillips said has been jokingly dubbed la Nada which in Spanish Means nothing. Of the 23 times that Neutral conditions have led into Canadian Winters since 1950, 10 ended up warmer than average nine were colder and four were in Between. It really is a Roll of the Dice because we dont have the one kind of driving Force that shapes the Winters in Canada Phillips said. This past Winter was unusual scoring third on record for heaviest snowfall while rain dropped by the buckets All summer Long. Were pretty Well weather weary Phillips said. Because weave come off a Tough Winter and a disappointing summer one might feel that nothing can get us Down. Or maybe Itell be the Straw that broke the camels Back. Maybe people will say a noughts enough and there will be mass migration to the South. In the Ontario ski Hub of Collingwood Winter business is very much contingent on the weather but that does not mean owners track forecasts months in Advance said Susan Nicholson general manager of the Collingwood downtown business improvement area. From our perspective theress absolutely nothing you can do about it she said while admitting she does peruse the Farmers almanac. I look at their predictions and what they re saying is coming up but i dont put a lot of Stock into it. Its a Good read. The Canadian press environment Canada says its any ones guess How cold it will be get ready for 40, almanac warns maybe people will say a noughts enough and there will be mass migration to the South climatologist David Phillips by Tam syn Burgmann Aaron Lynett / the Canadian press archives the Farmers almanac predicts a cold Winter for Canada but environment Canada says past trends show an equal Chance of a severe or mild Winter for the country.
