What a bugger!!!!
Was to have an interview today but it has been cancelled due to it. We were just starting to see the grass again after the warm weekend.
Thats 2 in 2 weeks now. When we arrived on April 30th last year we had snow the very next day so guess winter's not quite over yet

I lied, it was 32cm, a new record for late March.

Lol, there was a hint of sarcasm in there Bristol. More due next week I believe. I hope it clears as I'm driving up to the Tobique Reserve for Easter and now only have Summer tyres on.

Re: 25cm of snow and it's nearly April
I'm sure I looked at the weather network on Sunday afternoon and saw no warning there. They're usually pretty good. First I knew was yesterday morning when the radio said the schools were closed. Clever radio. I looked out and thought what's the problem? There was nothing to see.
But now we know.

My F-I-L drove yesterday from Cornwall, Ontario to the Tobique area for a funeral. We warned him about the snow that was forecast once he got past Quebec City, but he ploughed on....he said near Edmunston only 1 lane was clear etc but he got there. He had taken off his winter tyres last week.

We had the same in Winnipeg last week.
Just starting to see the grass then suddenly it's like nothing happened!!!
Hopefully thats it now for the big 20cm+ falls.

Re: 25cm of snow and it's nearly April
Oh good grief.
Blue sky and sunshine here, has been very warm for days. Veggie patch all planted up and we've been having lunch outside! Would hate cold weather to hit again now, much as I love it.
For once I'm glad we're heading to Vancouver.............
