8 storms this year

16 feet in New Foundland

You are able to cope with it though.

Here we just go into panic mode after just a few inches of the stuff! Sad

Just look at a few news programs or the press to see that.

Typically we as Canadinas tend to FORGET how to flippin well drive EVERY year and its during the first snow storm for some reason?????

and about 3 storms later we stop to look at our tyres and realize we should have had them changed 6 months earlier to aviod the rush...

we got 48cms of the bloddy white stuff yesterday and on Friday we are expecting 45mm of rain.
I just shovelled off 4.5 feet of snow off my garage roof and literally walked off the roof onto the pile and into the house to have a pint.
Tonight I get to move it with my tractor.

I blame my parents becuae they could have moved to someplace warmer like Arizona.
