So... ya still miss Edmonton Lazy?

In a way I'm glad I missed my bus this morning (relaxes with hot mug of cocoa in Black Mesa mug)

I can't watch the video as it's marked private, but I'm willing to bet it shows exactly the same as what's happening today.

I look forward to visiting this page tomorrow to see just how much snow fell: http://climate.weatheroffice.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_e.html?timeframe=2&Prov=ALTA&StationID=50149&hlyRange=2012-04-10|2012-04-14&Year=2012&Month=11&Day=6

It's piling up huge in corners.  Highways and even local roads are getting shut down by police.  I think it's time to try putting it in 4-Lo and doing a four-wheel drift when going out.  Oh, or maybe it's time to not go out (for those scared of sliding).

I think we got 6" or more out here at the park.

Total pileup on my deck? 8-9". Some may have been from before today. Maybe an inch or two.

attached: 2 photos that I took around 3pm yesterday, looking outside from my work (just south of University of Alberta main campus)...

[Mr. Analog]

OH yeah, sorry been juggling around my old YouTube channel a bit, I took some photos of out back, it was crazy yesterday

[Melbosa]

I took some pics from my location as well... I don't think we got as much snow as you guys in the north.

[Thorin]

Yeah, thanks for that Mel.  I hope your car's been plowed in.

We hadn't moved our second car here since before the snow started falling.  I had to use it tonight so I cleaned off the snow.  The stuff on the hood was nearly as high as the roof.  The stuff on the roof was almost a foot deep.  When I got all the snow off the car, the snow on the driveway was too high to open the door, so I had to stomp it down (I guess I could've shovelled it, but that's too much work).  I then had to check that there were no cars coming and take a run down the driveway to make sure I made it out onto the street and didn't get stuck at the low point at the end of the driveway.

Ah, the fun of driving an old rear-wheel-drive Volvo station wagon with old possibly bald all-season tires.  Man, I really should get some new tires and fix the block heater plug so it'll work.  Or buy a new car.

[Melbosa]

I am actually worried about the amount of snow I'll have to shovel to get my cars out of the garage, as I have no one looking after that at the house.  Just have someone whom is doing my walks.

Guess we picked a good time for our honeymoon. Hope the weather clears up in the next week for everyone.  Then I will back and have to deal with it all as well.  Good luck in the rest of the week.

[Thorin]

Bah, it'll probably warm up and then most of the snow will melt before you get back.

Hope you're enjoying the warm weather and the time away with the wife.

[Mr. Analog]

We're supposed to go into deep freeze here for a while, it might be a good idea to contact one of your neighbors and ask a favor. Unplowed drives are a calling card for break-ins :-/

Thorin did the trash guys take all that crap off your lawn? I hope so otherwise that's gonna be a bitch of a job :C

I guess the radio was wrong this morning, they were calling for -20 and lower next week...
