This morning before the rain started, I cycled to the Mall, then took the trail to Winsloe and then home logging 23 km for the trip. Temp was at zero. Light snow in the Royalty area, a few people had been out walking and there was one cyclist out before me.
Not as much snow as I got near to Winsloe, because on the gravel, it is good cycling even where there is snow.
This section almost like summer. So the cycling is over for this year and I have logged 5,450 km for the year.

Soybean
This photo was taken before 9, the sun was streaming though the cloud cover.
I went for a walk mid afternoon, this is a few soybeans that were missed by the combine.
There were still a lot of clouds in the sky. At the time I was walking, -7 with a wind chill of -17, very windy as well, gusting to 60 km/h.

Winter stream
A nice flow of water in the stream today, this was in the morning, it has rained all afternoon so there will be more water by now.
The sun was almost peeking out for a few minutes, very windy today, gusts to 70 km/h
The trees are clear of snow but still a fair covering of snow on the ground, the high was +8 and with the wind & rain most of the snow is gone.

Winter time
Sunny at +2 when I was out on the snowshoes for a hour. Still lots of snow on the trees.
This trail along the edge of the woods was busy, It looked to me as one snowmobile , two people on snowshoes and one hiker had used it before me.
I had walked this section on the 24th, but I would say that it has not being used since.
Before I got home a strap broke on the snowshoe so I need to make some repairs.

snow
This photo was taken mid morning, we had about 5 cm of snow by then.
This was mid afternoon and close to 10 cm of snow, lucky there was no wind.
The snow was sticking right on the trees, there was concern that we might not have snow for Christmas, but with the cold temps for tomorrow we will have snow on Christmas.
The temp was around zero all day so the snow is very wet and sticking to everything.

Wood land trail
Trail though the woods at the back of the MacPhail farm. Appears to be used a fair amount.
It was sunny at -5 with a light breeze, I was out for a 45 minute walk, Photo of some clouds over Cornwall.
This photo is looking towards the West River at the street going into Primrose Point. Again some nice puffy clouds along with the blue sky.

Christmas tree
I donated plasma this morning and spend the afternoon putting lights on the tree. Not finished, about 80% done. Heavy rain at times this morning at a high of 14. The rain stopped in the afternoon but the wind picked up, 60 gusting to 85 km/h in Charlottetown. On the Confederation bridge it was gusting to 150 km/h and the bridge was closed to all traffic for 90 minutes.
The temp now is only zero with a forecast low of -4 overnight.
