danc Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 It's that time of the year Tom. Cloudy with snow, or clear and frigid. Take your pick.

We need about three days of mild to get rid of some snow.Not the cold Tom wants to send us. Anybody want to come and shovel my roof? Think of it as extra insulation. I spent half the day yesterday raking insulation off my mom's roof. Man, is that hard on the back. JF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went outside. About 2 inches so far, but with the wind and more snow falling until around midnight, I expect big drifts around my vehicles and doorstep in the morning. Limeyangler, and the rest of the OFC guys west of me are getting the cold temps though, we are rather balmy at -17 overnight. http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/...e.html#detailsf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope too that it warms up for ya Probably gonna take her 6 hours. Not sure how much snowfall we've got in accumulated total...but based on how many times I've plowed 6" or more..probably 8 to 10 feet by now. It's come off the roof once before already. Pool deck has over 3 feet of compacted snow on it. Yard, because the ground isn't frozen and snows melting from beneath, is still a good 2 feet deep. Our property is the highest point of land on the Penninsula of land between Penetang and Midland harbours. We are in direct line of a North wind coming across the open waters of Georgian Bay and the lake is 580 above sea level... we are 760 and it seems the cloud/squall hooks and stays here!
