Re: Winter 2016-17
Just had about a couple of inches of snow here on mid Vancouver Island but I think it's supposed to change to a rain/snow mix later in the day, making for very slippery conditions. Glad we kept our snow scoops and ice chopper when we moved from Alberta but I have to admire the ingenuity of one neighbor who was using his leaf blower to clear his path.

Well, its naffing snowing now. So the question is, do I risk a mental cab driver trying to navigate this stuff after another couple of hours of freezing precipitation, or do I slosh through this crap and encamp in the local pub?

Maple Ridge received somewhat rare snow this week. Standard Vancouverite traffic chaos ensued. Multiple crashes and two rollovers just in our subdvision. Although all roads in are more than a little steep, it has to be said!

Very little snow so far over here in my bit of the GWN. However it's -17C this morning.
The sunshine outside looks nice .
