Average daily

maximums

and/or

minimums

result in weather.

Ottawa does not sit

on the shores

of Lake Ontario.

This increases climate.

Winters are severe

with snow-cover

for many months.

Summers have warm,

even hot days.

Winters are colder,

far less sunny.

Throughout years,

weather can change

and often does —

from day to day.

Yet Ottawa suffers

less than Toronto.

The rest is good —

or very good.
