THUNDER BAY - WEATHER - Thunder Bay continues to ride the line between spring and lingering winter this morning, with light snow falling at the airport and temperatures hovering just above freezing. In the Waterfront District this morning, there is the odd flake of snow quietly drifting down.
Street cleaning across the city continues, the focus is on main downtown areas right now, and the city reports that bike lane opening is delayed.
While rain showers may mix in later today, cold northwest winds and overnight lows below freezing are keeping the region firmly in a chilly weather pattern.
