My home state is over it's yearly average for snowfall, but in all honesty, this is how the weather used to be when I was a kid growing up. We haven't had much for snow the last couple of years, and as far as I can remember, we'd even have snow in April, most of the time. The last couple years, we've been really fortunate to have an early spring, but who knows what we'll get this year. I'm not complaining either way. I've got plenty to keep me busy, indoors.

Cold dreary weather is a good excuse to stay indoors where it's warm... the current excess of winter is certainly better than the alternative -> hot & candle stick dry!!! Enjoy the moisture while it lasts.

[ihbuilder]

well we certainly used more coal this year then last year . what kills me is the 60*F 1 day and down to 25*F the next .

[JAMMER]

Here are some snow fall totals so far here in central New York thanks to good old lake ontario Syracuse 96.6 inches Redfield just east of lake ontario 183 inches and they said from tuesday after noon to thursday morning got another 45 inches fell got to add that on. I use to know a farmer up there who use to tunnel to the barn to feed the cows. Ed

What the h*ll has Mama Nature been doing while I've been AFK sick? Hokay, which one of yuou is carrying her load of prozac and hormone treatments? Get back on the road and deliver it, hear?

In all seriousness, kinda makes me glas I was sick in hospital this past week. No reason to go out in that white cr*p. Not that it scares me, not having been a 'za driver for over a decade and all, but its the people that go out in it that " Dont Have A Fr*ggin' Clue " how to handle a vehicle in this. They are the dangerous ones.

Knowing how ~your~ vehicle handles is a lot toward avoiding an accident, as that knowledge can be used to gage if you can stop in time, or rig a skid/slide to go around the offtending twerp/twerpette, or safely ditch it if you have to.

If ya gotta drive, guys and gals, play it safe, ok? Lotsa space, and no more speed than you can control, clear? Oh, and keep all the relevant wheels on the downside, eh?

this is purely my opinion but i think the groundhogs are getting fed up with being bothered by us to wake up to tell us about the winter.they are probably thinking ...people thats what you have weathermen and ladies for and lets not forget about that modern technology we have .they figure if the lie a few times then we will get fed up also and leave them alone because they really don't know squat

[wolfws6]

I was goning to whine and complain about the 10 inches of snow were supposed to get in western Ohio. Thank you fellow canadians, I won't complain about snow after seeing those pictures!!!!!! That would be like "white death" here in Ohio, lol

It most certainly is. Glad you took the load you did. That was insane. The pictures CTV released this weekend was a better shot of the whole thing. Let's hope winter is done with us.

[Lil Giants]

Forecast here in the sw, looks like spring will make it's day view this wkend starting Friday with +8 & +9 for Sat... the water is gonna be rushing at those temps

I see I'm not the only one feeling the pain of winter Thanks for sharing everyone.
Technically it's spring now so enough is enough! We still have at least 2 ft of snow in the yard and the forecast for tomorrow is 10-15cm!!! ...... 6 inches in April! Enough already!!!

Snow is just about gone here and it was 14* today.

It's been a slow melt the last couple weeks, not many puddles anywhere.

[ryman]

Ok, you all can send that cold weather down here to the south west, It was 90 today and I am melting.

[Radio Control Trucker]

C'mon Riley, enjoy the cool 90* weather
It's going to be in the three digits in a month or so.. and that's just in the shade

You know, back east they have Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
Here in the west we have Flood-season, Fire-season, Earth-quake season, and then one season of great weather just to mess with everyone's head.

[Radio Control Trucker]

I don't know what's going on with the weather at your end of the world Mario. Here's a photo of the local weather in So-Cal for Mother's Day (but this is "normal" for us).



It's ranging between 95 and 97 degrees at Noon. It's a tad bit warm and the folks are running the A/C to keep cool.

[WhiteWolf McBride]

Whoa...

Its a little chilly out here in Ottawa... high of 12c/52f where it was double that all last week.

Thats why I asked if anyone checked the Farmer's Almanac to see what we're supposed to have for the Truck show weekend. Know the one dowen Hamilton-way is indoor, but the Canada Day one is outside, so anything damp is gonna make it a washout.
