At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Broke the record today - back in 1969 we had 37 - somebody must have said - Let it Snow - Let it Snow and it did!
Watching the Canoe webcast earlier and jealous as hell. Oh well - at least we were here to deal with it, could have been worse and happened 2 days ago.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Crap. Really? I hadn't noticed! I thought it was only 25! Tough to tell with all the whirling and swirling! I love the shovelling game.
1. The service comes and plows your driveway so you can get out
2. You go out, start your car, clean it off (get those windows clear!) and dig it out.
3. Just as you're ready to drive it off ...
4. Along come the city plows and leave a huge mound at the end of your driveway that you can't drive through
5. Dig out what they have pushed on you (using every French and English swear word known ...) and ...
6. Your car is so covered again, you have to clear it again -
7. Dig out the car get it all cleaned and you are good to go and .....
8. OH NO, MR. BILL! IT'S THE CITY PLOW AGAIN! You're socked in ....
9. Screw it. It ain't worth it ....
10. Go back inside the warm and search FLIGHTS TO NEGRIL .... NOW! Price not an issue!
11. Oh crap! The servers just crashed ......

Wow, 16 inches of snow... I feel guilty now about reveling in less than an inch here in Dallas this Christmas! 16 inches of snow...Wow!
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
We only got a inch in minneapolis. Thanks canada for keeping that snow where it belongs.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Snowing here, Downing Wi, as I type, will get same as Minneapolis when it is all said and done. Got that 16", all at once, a couple a three weeks ago, no fun.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
I will be skiing on the 9th and on the beach less then 24 hrs later. Guess which one I'm looking forward to more. I'm expecting to start with 43cubic centimetres of snow cold red stripe on landing at MBJ.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
We got around 30cm yesterday, still have to dig out the end of the driveway. I'm really wondering why we came home :confused:
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
When we lived in northern Idaho, the snow plows had a wing they would drop when going by a driveway to keep the snow from filling in. It was really nice. Even the big graders had them. No such thing in Wisconsin. The berm at the end is not only higher than the snowfall but usually hard as rocks so you hve to use a metal spade to get thru it. I'm really looking forward to sand at the end of the driveways and not snow...Soon Come.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
28.2cm here in Moncton NB. Heavy and wet. Sand would be much nicer.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
I love living in southern Ontario - we got about 6 inches of snow and hopefully that's it for the season (and I still *itch and complain :). )
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Supposed to start snowing around 8AM tomorrow in Philly.
My flight for MoBay is scheduled to depart at 7:50. WOO! Let's just hope the snow doesnt come early and mess me up. I bought trip insurance this time due to the forecast lol
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
We got right around 20 inches here in southern Wisconsin on the 20th of December. That was enough to suit me for the whole winter but got another couple of inches today.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
It's snowing here again; hopefully Flip got away ok.

I'm the air. About 30000 feet above the Bahamas.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Flip, PGW and Gerry G in Negril at the same time. I feel a uneasy calm right now that won't last the day. I'm frightened.
Re: At least 43 cm fell today in Montreal
Oh man I wish I was there to witness the debauchery!
