Michael Kramer used to do hilarious late night weather reports on CBC Radio.

An FYI...dont be surprised by Saturday morning our forecast for sometime Sunday/Monday shows snow.

Not meaning to resurrect an old rant, but why do all the radio people keep insisting that 15 cm of falling flakes predicted for Thursday is not a lot of snow? Sure seems like it when I'm cleaning off my driveway.
Of course, these are the same folks who last week kept telling us the high for the day would be -8C, so "not too bad." Since when is -8C considered a moderate temperature?
Summer cannot come soon enough...

Sorry. They're too busy not distributing the vaccines we don't have. Must be the weather. But that's a rant for another day. (Hopefully, one with no snow.)

If you want a decent to very true forecast, download Instant Weather app. Its a crew from Ontario that put it together and they do much better than the weather network or heck, even enviro canada.
680 news does a decent job of reporting the weather to be honest.

I agree. I also follow 680's Jill Taylor plus the Weather Network on Twitter.
One of these days listeners will be treated to hearing "Today's weather report called off on account of bad weather." if things keep unraveling with the cutbacks. 🙄🧊
