33" of snow, Friday night thru Monday morning. Spring really needs to get here.
Damn! lol. It's not that bad here so far. Maybe a few cm but it's blowing all over. I just hope we don't get any rain, that's what really messes up everything since it turns into an ice crust and it makes it hard to shovel or snow blow, or clear the car, or pretty much do anything. I opted to not leave the house today, didn't really feel like dealing with clearing the car. It's suppose to continue through tomorrow so may as well wait till it's done. So far this is not any different than a normal snow fall, but I'm just tired of snow.
It's been snowing all day today. We're supposed to get a couple inches of snow.
cold and windy still.
blah!
there still 1000's of people in Ontario without power since Saturday.It was an absolute mess here today. Everything was covered in ice. Several freeways ended up being closed, lots of accidents and cars in the ditches. Took 4x as long to get to work. Oddly enough schools were still open (I saw two school buses stuck in the atrocious traffic with me).
The weather is normally something we see so everyone was surprised at how bad the roads were (hence the lack of school closings). I think we're just all used to MDOT taking care of the roads but apparently 90% of their trucks got converted to road patching so almost none were out salting the roads.

The OPP (Provincial Police) state there were 1450 non-fatal crashes during the storm.
That was a pretty epic storm system that pounded us.
EDIT: lots of school closings and bus cancellations today in our area.
