Weather capital

A bit of a fog

Environment Canada reports that St. John's has the distinction of being the [bad] weather capital of Canada. St. John's apparently has the most:
  • foggy days at 124 days,
  • snow with 359 average snowfall,
  • rain at 1514 mm average yearly rainfall,
  • wind at 24.3 kms/hr daily average over the year, and
  • cloudy with only 1497 hours of sunshine per year.
To be quite honest, I didn't notice. Still a great place to paddle though.

  1. True Stan. If we waited for ideal conditions we certainly wouldn't paddle near as much.
