In Algonquin Park, the colours have advanced quickly over the past few days and the colours will peak this weekend. The region has experienced several evenings of frost over the past week and the colours are very bright at this time. Dominant colours are red, burgundy, orange and gold.
The Parry Sound region, is reporting a 60% change at this time with some nice colour along highway 124 and along highway 69, north of the town. The colour is advancing through the north Muskoka and northern Haliburton regions with a 70% colour change at this time. The area is experiencing beautiful pockets of bright red and orange. The Kawartha Lakes region is slow to change this year, just a 20% change at this time.
And the feedback I had from the roomie was that his trip to Algonquin went super well, with ideal weather and colour. Good to know. Just FYI: they went south from Smoke Lake into Ragged and then back the next morning, but not by the loop b/c of (self-inflicted) time constraints.
So... A dilemma - do I attend the bookclub? We're reading this, which I'm not thinking much of, and the Indian summer is seriously tempting, albeit the weather is indifferent over the next 48 hours or so.
Saturday .. Cloudy. Periods of rain beginning in the morning and ending late in the day then clearing. Wind west 30 km/h gusting to 50. High 19.
Sunday .. Cloudy. 70 percent chance of showers. Low 2. High 17.
We'll see.
