A
blanket of snow on the ground is not sight anyone would want to wake up
to in the middle of April. But Mel Lemon, a meteorologist with
Environment Canada tells us that snow this time of year is normal.
Lemon
tells us that approximately 5cm of snow fell, but that it's hard to get
an accurate reading when the ground is so warm. The system that brought
us snow last night is currently moving south of Nova Scotia, but we'll
still see some precipitation today: we'll see between 2-4 centimetres of
snow this morning, which will taper off to flurries and showers later
on this afternoon.
