4hr's blowing snow and the #$%^ing snowplow just filled the end of the #$%^ing driveway back in with 3ft square blocks!!!!

Why am I here again...can't wait to retire and go somewhere..ANYWHERE where there are palm trees.

I heard NB got it worse, so there's that I guess,


How much snow do YOU have so far??

Hey Rock, you know!

Oh YEAH???? (good come back eh? )

Its cold as cold can be here also Goingbroke we had -36c this am

We didn't get any more now but have had around 5 ft all winter. But crazy cold

Just went out to garage and it's so cold it froze my cooling barrel solid. And I mean solid
My pump was in it running to keep it from freezing and has always worked so far
This time not so much. Didn't know 55 gallons could freeze like that.

Neg 27 here today before wind chill. That's current. Was lot colder last night
Dipped to about 36 below I believe.

I'm in New Brunswick, as of 3pm we had about 40cm (that's 16") and I'm sure I'll see another 10-15cm before its done

You must be close my neck of the woods Yak ,we still have -4 f and wind chill is -15 f

We got 12°f here with sub 0 wind chills. Wood pile is goin down fast. Snow just clipped us. But I am ready for the long beards to thaw out and start hammering. And one of my damn goats kidded two days ago, crazy bitch.

When life gives you snow, make whiskey!

I think I might have seen a snowflake this year, I might have just been dust though. Its about 75-80f today.

Im gonna set my rye flour/white wheat malt outside to freeze strip it. They're calling for sub zero and windy here tonite.

Yeah they called for 50cm here but it's past that. Drove the wife to work today, 102 barely plowed let alone any smaller roads.

Like I said, it's winter in Canada...neighbor was blowing his driveway and we stopped and talked for a minute, he asked "where's all this global warming crap they keep talking about" I told him it's been warming since 1850 (the end of the mini-ice age) and it's still 3 degree's colder now than when the Romans were running the place a couple thousand years ago, but leave your SUV running in the driveway, that's supposed to heat everything up within the next couple years according to Al Gore!
He should know, he invented the internet and all...

Well to make you feel better.... It's in the 70 s here and everybody and their brother is out here to see the ocean. Took me an hour and a half to go 10 miles yesterday. It's supposed to rain this time of year!!!!

What is %&*($#%$ SNOW!!!!

Its not really a secret where I live. Were the auto city of Canada. And the biggest border crossing between Michigan and ontario

Where bouts you located. Approx if your not willing to name the city.

Alberta has been having a light winter by usual standards. All you down by the lakes know what an "Alberta Clipper" is... you should see what those start out like.
we have been having a january thaw for about 6 weeks now. gets cold on the weekend for some reason warms up for the workweek.
got about 5" on friday, but thats just a light dusting. And it was above freezing yesterday and today...so meh...i can take it.

Oh ya. We get a tone of the lake effect snow here. Tho not as bad as a lot of places. Hell there are parts of Michigan that are farther north than me and get wayyy more snow.

We got about 3" more than you did HDNB, but it's melting like crazy today.
Gotta love Canada, 10 months of winter and 2 months of poor sledding
Don't know what %&*($#%$ SNOW!!! is? Lucky bastard!

About 60 miles south of the Sault St Marie border crossing!

I've been planning a fishing trip up that way. If it happens, I'll let you know and bring you a bottle to try. Always glad to have another opinion and critique.

Trout or ice fishing, would be happy to share some wares also!

Trout or salmon. So spring or fall. You fish?

Yep hit spring steelhead,and browns on the Sturgeon,Pigeon,maple,Ocqueoc, and fly fish through out the summer all over here

Wow, It's hard to even think anybody is getting snow when Seattle is 60 and sunny in February. I even noticed an apple tree started blooming a couple days ago. This is the best place to live ever!!!!

Reckon I spotted some ice in the bottom of the chest freezer, 114' here yesterday so better than last week
PS palms are over rated for shade trees

Had -30 f this morning, as far as total snow fall this winter its about 250'' so far

I'll trade you 1 inch of %&* ice I'm getting for your 1 foot of %&*($#%$ SNOW!!!!
And throw in a quart of 3 month old rum.
