Had some shoveling to do this morning ...

[DeDukshyn]

Damn ... woke up to another 4 inches of snow, and its still coming down good ... more shoveling today!

[onawah]

It makes me tired just to think of all that shoveling.
You have my sympathy.
Our forecast here in the Ozarks is for sleet and snow, up to one inch, but it won't last long, thank goodness...

We have been lucky in one way here - only 2cm a day or every other day, but the temp keeps dropping. I think we are on the edge of that massive polar cold area. Other areas out in the prairies are hitting -30c and worse.

Calgary has a -34C in their forecast for Wednesday night - and its always windy there so that will be below -40c (-40F) with the windchill. Here in the BC interior we'll be getting -31C Wednesday night, so that polar front is hitting us here as well.

That wasn't the worst of it. All in all we got about another 6 inches, but this time there was strong winds and it drifted. I just ran out of firewood, and I need it delivered to the front of the shed (in the 3rd pic I posted the far addition part is where the wood goes), and the only access is behind the shed from the driveway (that you can see in the other pics). I have to shovel out about 60' the width for a pickup to get though, and it rained several times just before snowing so a lot of it is hard and crusty ... got about 1/3 of it done today, but the wood guy won't come till its done, and its about to get cold ... so I'll be back at it tomorrow ... I guess I should get some pics, as this is supposed to be a picture thread ...

Re crazy-low temperatures, this might make one pause just a little. Back in 1967, three climbers survived for 6 days and nights in a snow cave and then all made it down in one piece — just! — with their colleagues a little lower down the mountain having assumed the worst. It's hailed as one of the finest mountaineering books ever written.

Don't have a pic but yesterday I had to rescue 2 of my friends and 3 dogs who were stuck in a Snow drift on their way to their cabijn in the middle of the woods. Pretty interesting trying to get them out and myself not getting stuck . But my pyrangello plowing skills prevailed and we all made it out of the woods ok. Was minus 5 this morning here and headed that way again tonight. Great pics , keep them coming.

Attachment 46079

After two attempts at snow, the third is good, the children will still be able to go sledding or snowmen. This time it's much colder -7, everything is still white, like almost a month ago. I had never seen that, so much snow in such a short time. In France, the weather forecast has announced a cold snap, which should calm the Covid, which prefers humidity. The sidewalks are going to be super slippery, snow powder is falling. We will stay warm with a good fireplace ...

In France also we were cold last week going down to -7 °

Alberta is known sometimes as "Texas North" ... looks like mother nature decided to take that relationship a bit too literally ...
