WTF does winter ever end ?

[Brenda]

WTF!!!

Is it gonna SNOW this weekend here???

I will take pics if it does

[travior]

The only month that it has never snowed in Saskatchewan is July. So it would not be a big surprise if it snowed in the higher elevations of BC in early June

I'll trade you for the +38 we have had the last two days.

We had +33 2 weeks ago...

I checked the weather network though, and they say it will be 16 here... So I don't think I will be able to take pics...

Global Warming is screwing up the weather patterns all over the world.

Places that are normally dry are being flooded, and places wet are very dry.

Global warming does not mean everywhere will become warm. Melting of the polar ice add more moister to the atmosphere and cloud cover in certain areas.

yeah yeah yeah..just turn up the fuckin heat for 3 months of the year is that too much to ask for? maybe someday winter will only be 9 months instead of 11

Aren't they building an all-year long ski facility on a glacier near Cranbrook or Fernie? There are plenty of high elevations in the Rockies that get snow in June and September. That's why park guides tell you to be prepared for anything.

I visited the Columbia Glacier last year near the end of June and wind blew so much snow off of it (and onto us), that the temperature to -4 and I needed my brush to clear my back window.

Take a look just west of Calgary ...there's new glaciers forming. Snow is still 4 to 5 feet deep at 4500ft...normally bare by the middle of May.

So far this year we've had Winter, 5 days of Summer, and now Winter again! This sucks.

[Brenda]

I am having either Spring or Fall... It has been raining all afternoon... But I haven't worn a jacket in weeks, so Winter? No...

[sandorski]

I live on the coast, 9c, overcast, just like a day in January.

[Brenda]

Ahhh, yes, West Coast... The only place in Canada that doesn't have winters...
