Hubby is shoveling snow on our walks and it sounds like scrunchy ice under the snow.
There were 200 plus accidents on the roads here yesterday.
Winter has arrived.
@disk4mat I watched some weather news out of Calgary and saw the caution to stay home if you don't need to be out in the snow and footage of the road chaos. Stay safe. I hope you can stay inside.
Thanks, no plan to go out today. Hubby said the ground was still warm making it melt then cold weather now ice snow on top.
Not worth going out no matter how much I would like to do an errand.
You stay safe too national news did a graphic on the mb change needed to create the weather bomb. so I did see that.
@disk4mat it's deceptively a little breezy here at the moment. hard to believe we could see gale force winds in a few hours. Hoping for everyone's safety through the storm.
Glad to hear you can stay inside today :) I remember those tricky layers of ice and snow in Alta and learning to drive in it when it was safe to be outside. π π¨οΈ
The problem here is every winter everyone has to relearn how to drive in it.
@disk4mat lol ... I was just thinking that! also reflecting upon how we rarely get snow, but when we do, many of our Alta retirees and transplants seem to have forgotten how to drive in it. One year, a woman (don't know if she was originally Albertan) got herself stuck in the middle of a five-way intersection, she kept her foot on the gas and spun round and round π€£ π€£ π€£ I couldn't stop laughing becuz the solution was obvious lol
@Zevon π
A lot of our buses couldn't make the hills yesterday. Calgary has a lot of hills.
@disk4mat lol, saw lots of buses trapped in the snow on those hills. the snow wasn't actually that deep then.
No it wasn't deep it was the icey part and probably before the snow plows got out.
@disk4mat I think so too :)
