This years winter will be milder and shorter than last years brutal pounding, says Canadas official forecast. In fact, it will be milder from coast to coast, said Environment Canadas senior climatologist David Phillips. Canada can thank the hurricane action of El Nino for the benefits of warmer and drier conditions, he said. However, dont get too hopeful. This years change-up means Ontario and Quebec can expect temperatures closer to historical averages. |
