We are so glad Mairead found snow yesterday, because today it is going to be 13 degrees. The forecast is calling for significant snow on Sunday, however, so have your shovels ready and please remember to drive according to weather conditions. #welcomewinter #wearamaskandatoque

Media Release: Take steps to avoid spread of COVID-19 through close contact and workplaces Our investigations show that many recent transmissions of COVID-19 a...re occurring during close contact between individuals. Unfortunately, people are continuing to have close contact with others or go to work while they are feeling unwell, says Dr. Piotr Oglaza, Medical Officer of Health and CEO at HPEPH. If you are experiencing even mild symptoms, please do not assume it is the common cold or upset stomach. If you have any symptoms of the virus, seek testing, avoid close contact with others and do not attend work. More: https://bit.ly/37OSxNm

This morning we received a Facebook message from a pet owner living over 100km away. She was looking for a spot for her dog to see snow one more time, as she is on the last legs of life. We let her know that there is snow in the area, and she got to driving right away. Two hours later she shared these pictures with us. They found snow at the Dungannon Recreation Centre. What a happy dog! Glad we could help!
