Record warm March

March 2010 is going down in history as the driest ever in the Kenora area.

Not a significant amount of snow was recorded for the first time ever.

And Geoff Coulson of Environment Canada says combined with warmer than usual temperatures, snow levels diminished by the middle of the month.

The average temperature for the month came in at 0.6 Celsius, breaking a 10 year old record high by a full degree.
