1 June 2010From sun to tornado, and everything in between: Environment Canada's weather iconsYesterday morning, Ottawa was smothered in smoke from forest fires in Quebec. Environment Canada’s web site listed Ottawa’s weather condition as " Smoke “, illustrated by a small fire & smoke icon. A few people noted on Twitter that it was the first time they’d ever seen that icon as part of Ottawa’s weather report.So I was wondering – what other unusual weather condition icons does Environment Canada have ready to go. It took a bit of sleuthing, but here’s the chart. 45 icons in total, raining from sunny to tornado.[ ](http://ottawastart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/weather-icons.jpg)How I found them: * First I found the source image for "Smoke" at [ http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/weathericons/44.gif ](http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/weathericons/44.gif) * You can't list the entire contents of the /weathericons/ directory, but by inputting numbers you can find them -- from [ 00.gif ](http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/weathericons/00.gif) all the way up to [ 45.gif ](http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/weathericons/45.gif) . (29.gif is missing.) There could be more but that's all I could find! * I can't tell the difference between 20, 21, 22 & 24 - they all look pretty cloudy to me! ** Related: ** Ottawa Weather Guide
