NOV 2007 HIGHLIGHTS.. Dry and mild with a cold wintery finish.. For awhile there, people were wondering if winter was ever going to arrive this season as the mild weather of October lingered through the first 3 weeks of November. But this is southern Manitoba after all, and it didn't take long for Mother Nature to remind us of that. Colder and snowy weather finally moved in by the last week, with well below normal temperatures to finish off the month. The first 3 weeks were dominated by above normal temperatures, culminating with a record high of 17.0C on the 13th, the nation's warmest temperature that day. The day was also marked by some strong westerly winds gusting to 90 km/h west of Winnipeg. During that time, precipitation was minimal with some minor rainfall or snowfall events over the first 3 weeks. Snowcover was absent until the 18th when a couple of cm coated the ground. Until then, lawns were actually still green in some areas owing to the mild weather that saw only 2 days remaining below freezing over the first 19 days of the month. Overnight lows were also mild remaining above the -10C mark through the 20th. The weather pattern changed by the 21st, with colder temperatures finally moving in. Starting on the 23rd, there were 6 straight days of measurable, albeit minor snowfalls, totalling about 14 cm which finally started to develop a persistent snowpack in the city. The month ended with 4 straight days with highs in the minus teens, and lows mainly in the minus 20s. Overall the month ended up with a mean monthly temperature of -3.5C (-4.0C at the airport), about 1.5 degrees above normal for November (normal -5.3C) Precipitation for the month was a little below normal, with 1.4 mm of rain, and 16.4 cm of snow for the month. (normal 6.1mm rain, 21.4 cm snow) Overall a mild and dry month with a cold wintery finish!
