Snow, snow, and more snow.

[ssbmchamp]

I'd say were keeping up with Boston, if not passing them in snowfall. Here's a couple pics from my house. There's literally nowhere to put it but up, so the piles have grown higher than the roof, and the sides of the roads are about a foot higher than everyone's mailboxes lol.

Some fun facts (for central New York, which is where I live):

-Assuming the forecast is correct for the rest of the week, this will be the first time, since records have been kept, that the temperature has not been above freezing for the entire month of February.

-With that said, this is on track to be the coldest February on record.

-So far it's only the 3rd snowiest February, but with the temperatures never getting above freezing, every time we get snow it doesn't melt at all. As it stands, we are just over double our average snowfall for the month of February.

-We have had a measurable amount of snow all but 3 days, and out of the days we've had measurable snowfall, 8 of them have been 3 inches or greater, and 2 have been 10 inches or greater.






What's it like where you live?

Not snowy, that's for sure.

It's pretty darn cold though.

That looks awesome. I wish we got that kind of snow in Kansas.

Boston and Eastern Canada had it hard this time.

-34°C here, barely even snow on the ground to make a fort.

Here's a map of the difference in temperature between last month and 1951-1981 :


I'm in the middle of that bright blue spot in Quebec.

More snow in the forecast at Western NC, probably be an inch or so.

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

I find it amusing that you guys hardly complain about the cold, more just the amount of snow there is. In Melbourne, it's been 35°C for the past few days and today it's barely 20°C. I'm freezing.

But I wish we had snow like that. I have to travel a minimum of 4 hours for terrible man-made snow. I just want to board...

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

I don't really mind the cold as long as it's not really windy. that's just brutal. I'm used to it though because obviously I live in it, but I also do a lot of snow removal for people so I'm outside more often than not in the winter.

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

Unusually, compared to elsewhere, it was 8C/46F today and sunny. Calgary was at 13C/55F. Snow is melting and the brown grass is showing up everywhere. But I know it'll get colder again soon.

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

Still recovering from the ice storms from last week. :\ Luckily for me, my job gave us the option to work from home...so I just whored out FFR & watched Northernlion BoI Rebirth videos for the 7 days I was stuck in the house. :P

Ice on my car and my sister's car along with the back porch.

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

Coldest winter on record set for Ottawa as of today, I think it was like 45 consecutive days of lower than -20C with windchill. Also a decent amount of snow, not a shit ton though.

Snow is amazing, I'd love that much snow in my front yard haha

Re: Snow, snow, and more snow.

I've lived in my current house for 3 years now (near Chicago) and every winter when it gets ridiculously cold, my cold water pipes freeze up. 2 days ago my cold water pipe burst in my kitchen and flooded it while I was out of town. Came home to a flooded kitchen pretty much ruined all of the flooring. I dont mind the snow much, or the bitter cold.. this just fucking sucked.

I guess the only good that came from this is that my landlord is taking care of it. :[
