A wicked wind this way blows....

24/11/2014

Back from the doctors.  Found a parking spot on the street so it was about a five minute walk to the office.  Arrived there before time and then waited for 45 minutes for a couple of minutes consultation to be told, “it is healing nicely.  Will put you on another set of antibiotics and come back in three weeks.”  At least he did say to get the prescription filled at the ‘local’ pharmacy in the building because if the original prescription was not covered by my drug plan he would write another one that was.  This one was almost completely covered but the dispensing fee was $10.99 compared to the $3.89 that Costco charges.  Never-the-less instead of paying the full cost of $67.82 it was only $13.56!

So there is no face-lift for me.  I am stuck with the one I have and everyone else is just going to have to like me the way that I am...  or not...  whatever...

What a change in the weather!  When I first woke up this morning it was pouring down rain, then on the walk from the car to the hospital it was warm and mostly cloudy.  Came out of the hospital and it seemed to be clearing with more sun and temperature of plus 17.  Now a couple of hours later it is once again dark skies and the wind has started to blow again.  It looks as if it is going to be an interesting hash tonight.


Special weather Statements
12:10 PM EST Monday 24 November 2014 - issued by Environment Canada
Special weather statement in effect for:

  • Ottawa North - Kanata - Orléans
  • Ottawa South - Richmond - Metcalfe
Very mild air makes a brief visit today, then windy and turning colder as winter returns by Tuesday.

A deep low pressure area over Northeastern Ontario will track northeast into Western Quebec this evening. The majority of the rain has moved off into Quebec, however some showers and even the chance of a thunderstorm will linger today producing local rainfall amounts of 25 mm. Very mild air will pay a brief visit to the regions today with temperatures getting into the low to mid teens in many areas, with even a few upper teens possible such as in the Cornwall area this afternoon.

Meanwhile, a sharp Arctic cold front will blast east across the regions later today. It will be heralded by strong and gusty southwesterly winds, with gusts of 80 km/h being common over Southern Ontario and in Eastern Ontario near the north shore of Lake Ontario. A few gusts of 85 to 90 km/h are quite possible in some exposed areas. These strong and gusty winds will result in difficult driving conditions, especially on highways subject to strong cross winds.
