The forecast still generally suggests a streak of days with highs above zero — and Thursday is when Ottawa's average daytime high hits zero.
Kingston hit that yesterday and Pembroke gets there this weekend.
Remember it's Daylight Time weekend and your clocks will either need to be set or set themselves ahead on Sunday, depending how smart they are.
