I guess you like your neighbour or don’t want to cause any ructions with him. I doubt, legally, he’s allowed to spoil the quality of your life with such horrendous noise.

My car is covered in salt from the snow that recently fell. The weather we have had in March would be much appreciated in December, but it is time for flowers, buds and a wee bit of more mild temperatures.

Beautiful, bright sunny morning in Toronto, albeit a tad cool at 4c. No sign of snow on the ground. Toronto has, I think, a microclimate of sorts.

Vancouver is rainy today.

Sat had a mix of weather depending on where one was.

At the airport it was partly sunny in the afternoon and not cold and no rain.

On my way home not even 3km from the airport a 3 block span had small amount of snow on the ground and became quite chilly.

Vancouver region does have micro climates.

Can be warmish and sun at the airport and pouring down rain 20km away or sometimes even snow.

Can we have some spring now please and some quicker snow melting, OH keeps getting stuck in the drive with his 4x4 because it won't go into 4x4 and he's making deep grooves that will trap me unsuspectingly if I'm not careful.

It's - 4 here this morning and feels bloody glacial - yesterday 'felt' colder than it did in February, when you expect that kind of nonsense.

Come on Spring - get sprung please!

Heavy snow here, people stuck on the highway unable to get to work. The usual for early April.
