Snow? What's snow?
I'm in sunny California! It's supposed to get up to 60 where I am


Edit: Nat - Stumpy said she'd prefer to have her date with Dorky here rather than cold cold Minnesota

I'm not sure how much we have outside but its probably about 2-3 feet. We got about another 13" last week, so after that, I stopped keeping track

Dorky's fine with that....although Stumpy might like to watch the flakes fall by candlelight.

I live Northwest of Toronto and we got about 2 feet. Lots of cars stuck in their driveways this morning and a few in the snow banks on the way to work - lots of fun driving. Yesterday I had to take 3 runs at a hill before I managed to get to the top. My car was sliding backwards down the hill while I was sitting there with the brake on - a little scary to say the least.
Told hubby that next winter I will have snow tires and not all seasons on my car.
Apparently the snow tire rubber stays softer at low temperatures (all seasons get hard at around 7 degrees above zero), hence the better grip. The folks on the radio this morning were saying that all seasons should only be used in winter in some US states - that they are not suitable for Canada or US states that receive snowfall.

But our snow crews here in Canada are amazing folks. They started clearing shortly after midnight/or wee morning hours so this morning's commute to work wasn't as bad as it could be and most, if not all, major routes are cleared, sanded/salted and good to go.

None. We did have a light dusting a couple weeks ago, and everyone was disappointed it wasn't more. Any snow we get here pretty much shuts everything down. A few years ago we got less than an inch of snow and it paralyzed the roads. People were in their cars all night! Over an inch of snow! Unreal.

I grew up in the snow belt, lake effect snow, so I know what y'all are talking about.

We got about 12 inches of snow yesterday afternoon and last night. This was on top of about 8 inches we had earlier in the week. I'm sick to death of snow. I can't wait for spring!!!

We don't get any snow here in Winter. Have to go out a couple of hours further into the mountains.
