• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 19°C and January near -12°C on the long-run figures. Winter shuts things down for a spell, then spring reopens them fast. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough late April. Break-up sits around late April on average, with the water closing again about early December. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. Edith Lake runs to that rhythm year in and year out.
