Canadian Seasons
« Thread Started on Mar 2, 2009, 4:01am »

As a general guideline:

Winter - November to February
Spring - March to May
Summer - June to August
Fall - September to October

DST Trivia:

1. In Spring, we SPRING-Forward - set the time +1 (DST ON)
2. In Fall, we FALL-Back - set the time to Standard Time (DST OFF)

I was here last June which is summer and one of the things that surprised me is at 9pm, maliwanag pa.. up to 11pm halos. Pero now na Fall na, 9pm is madilim na. i haven't really timed it yet kung anong oras start dumilim, pero 9pm as of today is madilim na.

Thanks Lumina for the guideline. Matagal na din ako nag wowonder kung anong months generally pumapatak ang seasons. As of to date, I think it is officially fall na dahil nag turn into yellow na ang leaves at ang ibang trees ay start nang makalbo. Its a pretty amazing sight for a first timer like me, but at the same time scary dahil it means na lalamig na

@lumina, ang fall kaya sa alberta panay ulan na or meron ng snow ? Naka sched kong bisitahin si utol at ilang pinsan pinsan dyan sa Camrose City sa first week ng October kaya hopefully hindi pa pumapatak ang snow ( d pa ako marunong mag drive sa winter at snow) ? Mga 1400 km + galing dito sa Steinbach, MB kaya magpa member ako next week ng CAA para meron matatawagan during emergencies. Any advice on driving in Alberta sa ganitong panahon at sa mga long drives ? Shokran.

November usually ang start ng snow pero in October eh nagkakaroon kung minsan pero di katulad ng winter. Defintiely eh may ulan na noon. The only tip is to drive slow in snowy or rainy conditions

Question lang po mga sir/mam
I see in the news/video na grabe dumulas ang mga sasakyan pag winter, hanggang sa magbanggaan na. Bakit po ganon? Di ba equip ang mga kotse pag winter time? Preventable ba yon? Paano ang insurance at huli ng mga police officers?
