Hey... it's snowing again... what a surprise.
Our first winter in Barrie has been eventful as we've now gone 12 days with 2cm or more snow accumulation per day, and had a streak broken yesterday of 10 straight days of heavy snow / snow squall warnings.
According to local media the 2025 November/December snowfall amount is the highest in 25 years. Based on my substantial lack of meteorological knowledge I am predicting less snow than normal for the rest of the winter. The lakes are cooling quickly and icing over due to the colder than normal temperatures. That should reduce the lake effect snow squalls coming off of Georgian Bay.

Rapidly coming to the conclusion that all media should be worker-owned. #propublica

This is particularly bad in #Italy, where #WhatsApp is the default means of communication. In other countries I've lived in at least they consider alternatives. In Italy people don't even ask you if you have an account before adding you in school parent groups or contacting you for work over WhatsApp.
National Grid DSO's contracted flexibility numbers are impressive. The domestic segment is showing particularly strong growth, with EV charging accounting for the majority of this. Many small units are coming together to make a big contribution.
