1 hour north of the GTA, about 9 inches here. 2 weeks ago tuesday, over 2 feet. Those pictures are nothing I haven't seen......I'll go take a pic in my driveway.

 

As for the GTA, are you kidding? Those wimps get 2 inches of snow and they're calling in the army......

Ok, here's some pics. It's no worse than where Wizard is, maybe even less...but those snowbanks, those are the half melted remnants of 2 weeks ago. Yes, they were almost 7 f**king feet high! I was snowed in.

I've shoveled twice today.

Haha, 98 all over again, like Southern OT didn't know how to handle it. Funny thing, Montreal has been ready for this snowfall for a year and all the perp work is still crap. It's still an issue around here, snow removal here = sucks. Something like 1.2Bill spent on it.

Dude, I went grocery shopping today, and we followed a plow down the road for like 2km........do you think the bastard had his blade down, even though there was over 6 inches of snow on the road? Nope.

I'm calling my MP tomorrow and complaining, WTF are we paying these assholes for?

I've got massive amounts of snow here, too. I'll takes pics in a minute, then we can see who really has it rough.

You should see my driveway, we only shoveled to the driver side of the jeep. It was like a 2 feet.

When I was working up in the mountains here in cali I was excited to be in the snow, after living in it for a few months I hated it. I really feel sorry for the people that have to do with so much snow.

I'd rather have -20 and lots of snow, than have it be so hot that I can't stand to go outside. At least I can put more clothes on, I can't walk around nude when it's too hot, and that wouldn't do anything anyway.

I hate the summer, when it's like 35 degrees, especially where I work as we have 4 ovens for drying paint that run at 300 degrees.

I don't mind the heat. This one guy from Boston I met the other day (he was my waiter) said that being in Cali makes you feel like you need to go out everyday, because mostly everyday is nice and sunny.

Yeah but when does the temperature ever go anywhere near freezing there? Never, so you're used to consistent heat, I'm not.

It's as low as -30c in the winter, and as high as +40c in the summer (Plus humidity, it's been 46 degrees with the humidity here before) around here, theres no consistency. That's -22f to +104f, try getting used to that, by the time you've adjusted to it being hot as hell, it's already cooling off and heading towards winter.
