Snow Moon - February 2026

 

We watched the full moon rise in Yelapa on February 1, and it still seemed full when it rose the next night in Puerto Vallarta Feb 2. Hermosa Luna!

We were feeling a bit guilty about leaving Toronto just before it was dumped with the heaviest snowfall in a generation:

Toronto is digging itself out of mountains of snow on Monday after a massive winter storm on Sunday dumped around 50 centimetres of the white stuff or more in Toronto, depending on how close you are to the lakeside. According to Environment Canada, snowfall totals at Toronto Pearson International Airport on Sunday hit 46 centimetres, making it the “highest daily total snowfall on record.“This brings the January 2026 snowfall total to 88.2 cm, which is the snowiest January and snowiest month since records began in 1937,” the weather agency said in a summary released early Monday.

The same weather pattern had brought snow in Copper Canyon's Divisadero January 24, shutting down Aventura Ecotoursism Park and the Cable Car ride we'd booked ahead. We met one couple in their thirties who were thrilled to be experiencing snow for the first time; many tourists were happily grinning and making snowballs. 

Meanwhile, back in Toronto. our house sitter Maxyne was snowed in, watching coyotes in our front yard on Jan 26.
