It’s currently shitty in Edmonton and the surrounding environs. We had some freezing rain awhile back, then light fluffy snow over that… and now winter temps are slowly descending on us. I can take it all except the ice. We have been walking in the street because the sidewalks are so treacherous. 

I don’t get it. The peasantry in my neighborhood all scrape and shovel the sidewalks. If ice builds up, they salt it. In the knob neighborhood, where they all drive Beemers and Porsches… a lot of ‘em don’t shovel at all, or do anything about the ice. What - they can’t afford a shovel or a bucket of sand and ice melt?

Supposes to see -30℃ at night soon. Remember to plug the cars in at night folks.

  1. Yup. Been plugging in for awhile. The last few mornings have been in the -40’s at my hovel.

  2. I don't know what's more miserable... the bitter cold or this cursed blowing dirt and tumble weeds. Wind up with dirt in your eyes, teeth, down your neck and in the crack of your arse. Literally. I've seen it blow here from Christmas to the 4th of July.

  3. A new level of weather prediction from our brothers of the Great White North, "Shitty with increasingly shittier front moving in tomorrow".
    Thank you for increasing our awareness base. Had a real tornado come within 4 miles of us the night of the Mayfield disaster. Middle Tn.
