Yeah, here it was very stormy yesterday pm with 10+ cms and it turned to hard rain early evening. That snow is basically gone now and we have maybe 10 cms on the ground from before.

With temps of +6 to +11 forecast all this week and rain on Wednesday we may see the grass again soon.

Thanks Colin. This year it's been the frequency and not so much the volume. We're in pretty good shape since we regularly get warm up spells and rain to rid the white stuff.

This week ahead looks pretty awesome.

I see the G on the road later this week.

Sunny and -1 here. I almost feel guilty. Almost.

I feel like it's still coming for us, March is generally our snowiest month. But damn 10-25 cm every time you turn around, that gets awfully tiresome.

We are getting both the frequency and the volume. As much snow as we have on the ground, apparently it's nothing compared to norther NB. My father travels to norther NB and he said it's insane the amount of snow up there. So I guess there is always worse.

My best friend this winter has been my snowblower. I'd be crippled by now if I didn't have one.

Here is a pic yesterday afternoon as it was snowing really hard.




And the snowbanks on my street are easily 12+ feet.

Actually Bill, the last week or so my knee has felt awesome.......probably best it's been since it happened. I am crossing my fingers that it continues and I'll be ready to play golf in less than 2 months.

I agree with you on the snowblower! I also know about Northern NB in Bathurst with my two bothers in law living there. The outlaws are renting in Florida so they are escaping it. WE snowmobiled up there for years so I've seen plenty of heavy snow in the woods.

We've had a lot of snow in total but 95%+ of it has melted. I really don't expect to have any on the ground by this Friday or Saturday once again. We didn't have any for a while up until earlier last week. Then I'll sneak the G out.

We'll have a half dozen more blasts likely this March but they'll melt within days of coming down.
