“You miss 100 of the shots you don’t take” - Wayne Gretzky

Didn’t end up finding the storms I was hoping for but every opportunity is a learning experience for next time. Even found a sunset in Portland after it all.

Pretty gust front from a dying storm here in Saint-Hermas, Quebec as the day comes to a close in Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec.

With too much cloud cover and suboptimal wind shear, we didn't have enough time for the atmosphere to destabilize after morning rain, and storms could not sustain properly because of the suboptimal wind shear. Both issues were mentioned in yesterday's forecast as possible scenarios that could turn today into a bust, which is exactly what happened.

Still got into the belly of the storms around St. Isidore and Plantagenet and got some great structure.

The focus now turns to Saskatchewan, where tornadoes are expected in the next couple hours. Tom's got the live coverage for that, and we have two storm chasers (Kurtis Fafard and Shannon Bileski) streaming for Canadian Weather Live out there in Saskatchewan.
