Beautiful scenery but you can have it fella. Way too much snow for me. My teeth would always chatter.

It was -39 C (with windchill) in Winnipeg last weekend.

Be glad you don't live there.

It was expletive cold.

Glad I'm back in Vancouver where we only have to deal with torrential rain storms

Wish I had a truck to get to work tomorrow morning! That storm you just had in Quebec is now here in the Atlantic Provinces, 30-40 cm of accumulation expected for this area of New Brunswick, and I have to get to work with a Civic CX if I can even get out of the street. The street here is never plowed until after the storm and a stretch of road along the coast that I travel on is know for having snow drifts up to six feet high if the wind is pointing in a certain direction. They have also announced a storm surge warning which is basically a combination of high tides and strong winds which could flood low lying coastal areas with the tides and push coastal sea ice onto shore. It hasn't happened in a few years, but when it does it could be into the 10-15 million dollar range as far as the cost of damage.

And yet they have all the fun stuff like national level racetracks... and we have... uh... rain ....Mission Raceway...some racetrack in Merritt BC (AMR) that will be finished by the 12th of never.

Our summers are to die for I guess...but then that puts me back onto the whole racetrack debate once more.
