Hi Jay,

Funny, as I was in Toronto 3 times in 9 months of time. Oktober, March and June. In march I saw some snow, but the temp was already above zero (Celcius that is). Begin oktober 2003 was arround 20C, March 5C, and June arround 25C. Nothing compared to Januari this year when I went through the US through chicago to SF.

Walter,
