Snow...

[jhawk]

Hi all,

As per usual, it's winter in Canada. This year it has arrived late and brought with it a massive helping of snow. We've had two snowstorms this week, the first dumped 75cm (2.5ft) of snow on us on Monday. Currently snowing like mad outside today, expected to get another 2.5-3ft before it's all over (supposed to subside around 4AM tomorrow morning, having been snowing since probably around 6AM this morning. Below are some pictures I've taken this winter. More to follow if it ever stops fecking snowing. Currently highest drifts around our property are about 10ft high -- cumulatively from Monday's storm and today's.

End of December.

Will do! The temperature has been sitting around -3C all day. Lowest I've seen this winter was -29C (feeling like -35C w/ windchill!)

Nope! Falling over, though, is something I do very well on skis.

Great pictures, I bet the dogs love it.

Going to show your great photos to my kids. They've had their sledges out of the shed in anticipation since October here.
Will have a week of "Can we move to Canada Dad?"

Everything would be fine until there was a slight flurry on the M25.
