How is the weather?

12 years ago

Calgary had more snow fall in December than it's seen in 100 years. We received 3x the normal for the month. We usually get enough warm weather in between snowfalls to melt most if not all the snow, but it has also been bitterly cold so not too much has melted. We did have 'nice' weather the past few days and I was actually able to see pavement on parts of my street for the first time since November. But woke up to strong winds this morning, and you guessed it: it's snowing again. We have snow and wind warnings. Joy. This is my second winter driving a 4x4 and I must tell you, I'll never own a vehicle that isn't a 4x4 again. I haven't been stuck once, and if you saw the intersections in my neighbourhood, you would agree it's a great thing to have. LOL

We have about 2 - 3 feet of accumulation of snow in parts of my front yard. And a snow pile that's almost as tall as I am from shovelling the main walk.

Saturday morning I left the house early for a blood donation and it was cold....... yet there was a man out there going for his morning brew wearing red plaid shorts, flip flops and a leather jacket. I couldn't get my camera out fast enough to take a picture. :(
