Saturday weather boasts shorts and short sleeves on London, Ont. golf courses

The calendar might read early November, but that did not stop Londoners from hitting the golf green or bike trails and making the most of Saturday’s unseasonably warm weather.
The calendar might read early November, but that did not stop Londoners from hitting the golf green or bike trails and making the most of Saturday’s unseasonably warm weather.
“This is bonus weather for November and we're taking full advantage of it,” says golfer Jay Johnstone at Highland Golf and Country Club. “It's pretty packed out here because we never expected 20 to 21 degrees.”
The course was full in what could be the last warm weekend of the year.
“We've seen above normal temperatures for the whole week and not just a couple of degrees, we're averaging eight to 10 degrees above where we typically are this time of year,” says CTV News London’s Meteorologist Julie Atchison.
Saturday's high reached 22 C, and Atchison says the record temperature is 22.4 C, set back in 2015.
At Springbank Park, hundreds of Londoners were getting some exercise; with most saying, they probably would be here anyway enjoying the warmth — just not in shorts.
