KENORA – WEATHER – Kenora and the Lake of the Woods region is in that late-winter “in-between” pattern today—fog early, temperatures climbing above freezing this afternoon, and a chance of either flurries or rain showers later in the day.
When the thermometer hovers near 0°C, conditions can change quickly: wet roads and sidewalks by day, then a refreeze risk once temperatures dip again overnight.

Wardrobe Recommendations
This is a “layers + traction” kind of day:
-
Morning: insulated coat, hat, and mitts (wind chill near -9).
-
Afternoon: with +2°C possible, dress so you can peel off a layer if you’re active.
-
Footwear: waterproof boots with good grip—near-freezing days often mean slush and slick patches.
-
Driving tip: top up winter windshield washer fluid—road spray can get gritty when temperatures bounce around zero.
Weather Trivia
Fog forms easily when the temperature and dew point are close together—today they’re only about 0.5°C apart. That’s why fog can show up quickly overnight and linger into the morning before sunlight and mixing help it lift.
