Title: Snow Fall Warning in effect!
Post by: Superchecker on February 23, 2018, 08:34:46 AM
Glad I'm not working today, bracing for up to 20cm of snow today. Got like 2cm Wednesday that turned roads into skating rinks Thursday morning. Lots of fender benders yesterday.



Stay safe friends!

Snow is hideously white and is a shameful and painful  reminder of Canada's racist colonial past.

It's true.  Signalling is not on effect here.  Or they signal halfway during the turn.

Why you hate Vancouver?



I don't like it either.  It's like snob central.  But it's easier just to have fun and focus on lo and ignore the crowd when we are out.

Snow conditions vary, depending on where you live.  Geography and location make a huge difference.



I have traveled around, and even though the West Coast doesn't get hit with much snow, when we do, it can and does bring the city to a standstill...



This snow isn't the light, fluffy stuff you get in colder climates.  It is often heavy, and will compress into pure ice once driven over a few times, as the temps are usually hovering right around the freezing mark..  Add in the fact that hilly terrain is everywhere here, and you have a recipe for disaster.



It is not like driving through a couple inches of light fluff in the flat Prairies...
