After battling freezing rain to end 2011, we will have some very warm weather for the first week of 2012.

Temperatures are expected to be well above normal starting today, and could get up to 11 by Wednesday. Normally at this time of year, we have a high of -9.

However, with the warm weather, strong winds are also possible, with gusts up to 70 kilometres per hour tonight.
