After seven years of La Nina conditions, the surface temperature of the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean has warmed again, signalling the switch to a global El Nino event. Here is what Canadians can expect this El Nino winter.

Where is that? We had a metric fuckton of snow and cold last winter in Manshitoba. I’m not denying climate change, just saying that last winter was painfully typical.
I clear snow in Winnipeg and we definitely didn’t have a shit ton of snow last year. In fact I only had 40 hours of work between Jan 1 and the end of April.
I mean I heard Winnipeg is a frozen Shithole from a very reputable source so that tracks. In ontario though winter basically stopped existing 10 years ago.
Frozen? Yes
Shithole? Absolutely not!

Thank you for clarifying! I had no idea
That Ontario (southern Ontario, no less) blizzard last winter season sure seemed like winter. Is that summertime weather to you?
Lol weather vs climate. The meteorologist in the article explains quite a bit about it if you are actually curious.
It’s not much to describe winter as “that one blizzard”.
Two days of snow sure doesn’t seem like the winter I remember. In the winter I remember you’d have 4 or 5 big snows like that and the snow would stick around for the rest of the season. Now if you don’t rush out to build your snowman the next day, your chance is gone.
No time since at least 1990 was that ever consistently true. There have been a lot of years since then without much snow. 1998 is famously the year that winter forgot. It may go back even further, but I’m too young to have the memories.
It is definitely true that some years are like that, but even 2021 was like that. If you recall, snow-time activities were all the rage that year because we had consistent snow cover throughout the winter and everyone was otherwise stuck at home because of COVID giving reason to get out and enjoy the snow.
