[didimentionlarseller]

Same. We were able the big snow storm so far but alas I guess it is coming.

meh at least its almost mid feb once march rolls around I usually think winter is almost over

St Henri is going to be a mess tomorrow ugh

 

[PhysicX]

You think I'm worried? I drive a god damn 2007 Toyota Yaris. Hatchback on top of that. Best winter car ever.

I moved away from downtown recently so I don't know if things are normally this bad around here (small, residential street with just 6 houses so it's low priority for snow removal). But currently the entire street and sidewalk is a solid sheet of ice. You can literally skate on it. I can't even walk my dog without wearing spikes.

Same here. We were in Littly Italy for 8 years up until last July. In the suburbs now and our street is 2-4 inches of solid ice. with craters the size of small cars.

 

[didimentionlarseller]

at least that sheet of solid ice is covering up the massive craters in the road

I take snowstorms over hurricanes , tornadoes , earthquakes , tsunamis , floods , volcanic eruptions and all other kind of mother nature crazy shit. Hell i prefer a snowstorm over freezing rain. That i f***ing hate.

Sure sometimes it does suck and i wouldn't complain living in a tropical paradise but those climates have their own fair share of problems. Winter isn't always fun here but honesttly we don't get it that bad compared to many other places in the world.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

You guys getting it up there too?

Toronto is gonna get crushed as well.

Unfortunately, we're expecting freezing rain. I hate freezing rain. I'd rather get snow. It should be slippery as hell no matter what.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I'm supposed to be flying out of Montreal early Wednesday. Hopefully it's settled down by then...

Expect delays. It's supposed to continue through Wednesday morning at least. They'll need to clear the run ways, etc.

Weather Network is predicting 35-50 cm for Montreal now.

I don't know about 50 cm, but 40? I think it will happen.

 

[FrankMTL]

I don't know about 50 cm, but 40? I think it will happen.

I’m 39 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen 50cm in one snowfall. I doubt it happens as well, but it would certainly be incredible.

In december 2012, on the 27 th I think, Montreal got 47 cm of snow in 24h. I believe that is the record for most snow in a day period.

I remember trying to shovel that day. The wind made impossible, lol. The snow was too light and it would go everywhere.

Tropics have huge insects and snakes, which I hate, and is a breeding ground for all sorts of nasty illness. I’ll take the snow!

 

[CapSpace]

Can't wait for this shit to melt and freeze right after. We could really use a few inches of more ice.

 

[Harry22]

I suggest everyone to stay home Wednesday.

 

[Andrei79]

As crazy as this winters been, nothing beats what I saw in Moncton in 2015. 1.5 meters over 3 days, more than 2 meters over a week or two.

Ah yes, that winter was the worst winter of my life. I was living in Fredericton and I had never seen that much snow in one winter. It was blizzard after blizzard after blizzard.

 

[lo striver]

I suggest everyone to stay home Wednesday.

Thanks, boss. I am actually planing to stay home for the rest of the work week.

It’s been -35 to -50 here the past 2 weeks straight in Saskatchewan (that’s including wind-chill) and we’ve been getting consistent snow with it. February has been hell here.
