Well, they were telling us to get ready for another storm coming this week. This morning showing on our network for weather, a dumping of the white stuff coming Wednesday 6-8 inches and Thursday another 2-4 inches. If we get it , its the most snow i have seen in these parts for years. We were told last fall by Environment Canada, that we would have higher rate of snowfall and cold temps this winter, They're forecast has been solid.

How much did you get so far? After your post I feel silly complaining about the snow I got Saturday.
 
Oh we got plenty of snow from a month ago hahahahaa.whats on the hood of the bus is from last nite.the rest has been there.View attachment 79708
For a second I was like, "What bus?" I thought it was buried in the snow somewhere until I realized ... well, you know.
That is a poop ton of snow! I hope this is the last of it for you guys. A little snow is cool, but that just makes life miserable.

Stay safe brother. So far, we’ve had one decent snow here in NE Illinois. I might have had 5” on the drive….. but that’s being optimistic. Pretty sure it was less than that.

But noooooooo…… there’s nothing screwed up about weather patterns.
 
Right now we got what i call ,Sun Snow. Ya its 39 degrees and sunny with one little black snow cloud up there with light snow.Weather radar dont even pick it up.
 
Update for us here. lots of snow on the way.

Stay safe sir. Good excuse to stay inside and play guitar. Sounds like a similar storm passing thru central Illinois. Wednesday into Thursday. One of my kids live near Peoria Illinois. Told me they have the potential for up to 17”. Let’s hope for all in the path of this, the weather guys are wrong…. In a good way.
 
Going to be a busy couple days for a bunch of us living in North America. Y’all stay safe boys and girls. 1643720728919.jpeg
 
We're expecting another 10-15cm (4-6 in) of snow in the next 2 days. That is on top of the approx. 70cm (27 in) that we already have.

As Norm stated above, that is the most snow we've had in recent memory here in Southern Ontario greater Toronto area.

No iguanas falling from trees though!

As luck would have it…. My little corner of Illinois is looking at…. at most…. A dusting. Not even shovel worthy. About an hour south is where the “fun” begins.

My eldest son that lives in central Illinois has the potential for up to 17”…. Which if my math is correct makes it around that 45cm region. School he works at has already emailed parents to warn them there may not be school Wednesday and Thursday.
