Both ends of Canada getting bad weather.

A major snowstorm expected for Central & Eastern Canada with more evacuations under way as B.C. ice jam gets worse.
Wonder what we`re getting for our Chrsitmas weather this years?

well on the bright side of things, at least there will be snow for Chrisitmas this year, last year all we had was mild weather and green grass. . .

Here in Sask I could really go for mild weather and green grass after blowing snow & freezing temps.
That`ll have to wait till spring I guess.

Careful, it maybe more than we want to see in one winter....
Actually I don`t mind the snow as long as the temps and windchill stay above -25 and no freezing rain.

HA! You got ripped. I went out at 4AM Sunday morning and didn't get home until Monday at 2PM. Yep.....34 HOURS straight...with no sleep. Well, actually I slept in my church parking lot for 15 minutes. Man I was soooo tired. I beat my previous record from 2002 by 7 hours. WOW!

Going out again tonight to do some cleanups with my Dad and the skid steer.

-Matt

Oh ya....we had over 30 CM of the white stuff. Probably close to 35-40 CM by the time it was done in some of our lots!

We don`t mind if that`s what you call getting ripped. My skid steer is quite happy to have the time off and I agree!
