What winter is actually like in Brooklin
Brooklin sits high enough north of the lake that it behaves like a different climate from downtown Whitby fifteen minutes south. Snow that falls as rain at the lakeshore accumulates here, and the concession roads running east and west out of the village (Columbus Road, Ashburn Road, and the sideroads off Baldwin Street) are the first in the area to drift closed and among the last to be cleared. It is a genuinely rural winter attached to a suburban village.
