anyone get stuck today?

Well I did Twice. The snow is killer this year, or maybe I just notice it more because I didn’t drive last winter. I got stuck going to work and trying to get home from work. The roads are treacherous!

Anyone else get stuck last night or today?

I saw people get stuck while shoveling my driveway. Shoveling driveways are a pain (when you don't have a snowblower). Then, there's those darn snowplows, and sidewalk plows that plow snow on ur newly shoveled driveway haha.

well we have been battling snow here for a few months already. But what we arent prepared for so early in the winter is the -43 C it is currently. Now that is COLD, and even for me, someone with anti freeze in her blood.

Take care and keep warm

OH and Merry Christmas

Snow not a biggie we Manitobans love our SUVs but the killer is the -33C weather we have this week, try filling your gas tank holding those gas pumps with bare hands almost not worth getting gas.



Cya...

I heard toronto was a skating rink today. here in niagara there was just huge frozen blocks of snow/ice littered everywhere as soon as you ventured off a main road.

I spoke to my parents today who live in Owen Sound, they said there is already 40 inches of snow on the deck. (inches is not a typo), 14 inches of it came today.

I didnt get stuck though. I drive a tank of a 1991 volvo outfitted with bridgestone blizzak snow tires. best investment ever! I got hooked on snow tires about 5 years ago and havent looked back. suv drivers have got nothin on me!

I hate winter and the snow...ski-ing should be done on wet water. You should live in a place where-- T-shirts are the only shirt required outside. Shovels are for grave-digging. Snowmen are known as drugdealers. Fur stays on the animals.
