Winter wallops Canada from coast to coast

WOOT 45cm here in gander.. I love it!!!!!

i cannot wait for this second storm to blow through!

yep that GW is a bitch


or is that Tipper ?

A tragic snowfall around PG today. Five people died in one car on the highway this morning.

Yeah I was hearing that all day today. Especially since one of the people in my class is from Vanderhoof. She was getting calls all day making sure she was alright. Especially since she had a nasty accident at that very stretch of highway a few weeks ago.

I grew up in Vanderhoof so I'm very curious to hear who it was. Such a tragedy, it could be one family for all we know. Apperantly the snow plows and sand trucks weren't anywhere to be found at the time of the crash. So far they seem to be taking the winter off.

Yur kidding!

I have friends who just moved to Vanderhoof from SK, and she is driving to PG every day to get to work

And they are a family of 5

Yikes, makes you kind of worry.

Lotsa snow here in Quesnel as well. They said it was going to warm up and we'd get freezing rain, but it looks as though it's going to stay about -16 tonight. No freezing rain, that's a good thing. I wouldn't be drivibng the highways tonight or tomorrow if you can avoid it, the roads were the shits all day today.

They just cranked up a warning here in eastern AB that we are going to get 20cm tonight or tomorrow morning. With the wind right now, it'll mean drifts looking to eat cars.

That's the weather that came through here today, look out!!!

No kidding.

I hear Mexico is nice this time of year......

If your plane leaves

Hopefully it'll warm up to what the BC temp was, but I don't think we're that lucky.

@Brenda: Welcome to one of the favorite Canadian past times. Weather watching!

And it's inseparable cousin....bitching about the weather.
