Snow Squall Warning : Haliburton – Minden – Southern Haliburton County Issued at 12:57 AM EST Saturday 12 December 2009
The Weather Network
..Major snow squalls continuing into the morning then dissipating.. Strong and cold westerly winds are producing Major snow squalls off Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Zero visibilities in whiteout conditions from bursts of heavy snow and blowing snow are associated. Snow squalls are expected to be particularly severe and persistent from Manitoulin Island across Georgian Bay. Further local accumulations of up to 30 centimetres of snow are possible tonight in the heaviest bands east of Georgian Bay.
A very strong and cold westerly flow will continue to generate intense snow squalls extending well inland from Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Dangerous whiteout conditions from blowing snow and very heavy snow will continue in the strongest snowsqualls especially early this morning. The strongest and most persistent snow squall band is extending across Georgian Bay to just north of Parry Sound and moving southward. This band may affect highways in the vicinity of Parry Sound where additional accumulations of 20 to 30 centimetres are possible this morning. This is in addition to the significant snowfall and drifting snow in the regions in some locations 50 to 100 centimetres causing historically extreme total accumulations for this snow squall event. Environment Canada will continue to monitor this developing situation closely. Further warnings may be issued as warranted.

The Scary Sacred Dark – Vigil of light for Copenhagen Conference on Climate Change
On Sunday, December 13, at 10:30 am please consider being part of a global “moment of hope.”
This event is part of the weekly Gaia Gatherings at the Blue Sky Studio with the theme this weekend The Scary Sacred Dark. Despite it’s light-hearted-sounding name, The Scary Sacred Dark is being offered in support of the Copenhagen Conference on Climate Change.
What happens at this “vigil of light’?
First off, you will hear a story about the “scary and sacred dark,” then candles will be lit to symbolize sending light to where it is needed both in the world and in our lives. This also is a gesture in joining with those around the globe who have made a commitment to help restore our climate.
Closing out this Sunday’s Gaia gathering will entail going outdoors and ringing bells 350 times. Bells have historically been used especially in spiritual communities to signal imminent danger and to call out to the people of the community.
“350″ is indicative of 350 carbon parts per million which is the upper limit our atmosphere can tolerate.
When measured 200 years ago the earth’s atmosphere’s carbon parts per million was 275. It is now 390!
It is imperative that we push back that number to at least 350.
Be heard. Bring Dinner bells, Christmas bells, Cow bells, Jingle Bells and join in supporting a return to a more healthful planet.
Where: Blue Sky Studio at Haliburton Chiropractic Clinic, 18 Dysart Street
