I could do without all this darn snow....


Hillbilly Housewife wrote: seriously, it has snowed big snowflakes alllllll daaayyyyy today. There's about 20 centimetres on the groud as it is.. and there's supposed to be an extra 30 from now to the morning. That's 50 centimetres. that's about 20 inches, people!

Not a problem in itself.... but...

....one of the major bridges between Gatineau and Ottawa (Quebec and Ontario) is out due to repairs needing to be made... which means that 27,000 cars need to find an alternate route.. which means one of the other 3 bridges in the area... traffic is bad.

......OC Transpo - which is the Ottawa-Carleton Transport services (the busses) are going on strike tonight at midnight... which has estimates of an extra 120,000 cars on the road as of tomorrow... for at least until Monday...

...........plus this snow... I kid you not, a 10 minute drive took us almost 2 hours.

The weather networks are announcing the snow to continue...and as it gets colder overnight, they're calling for freezing rain....

.....................tomorrow (and the rest of the week) is going to be a nightmare. sad.gif

lisar replied: Sorry for the weather. You could always come to Florida. It was 68 outside today

Maddie&EthansMom replied: That's awful, Rocky. I love snow, but we don't see it often. I can't imagine living in that temperature and in those conditions. Stay safe and warm. hug.gif

AlexsPajamaMama replied: dry.gif yuck

boyohboyohboy replied: You can always send it here! I would love to be snowed in for a while...

Hillbilly Housewife replied: it's not too cold, thankfully.. as odd as that sounds.... i snuck in a cigarette (bad, i know) this afternoon and went otuside with jeans, a t-shirt, and a knit cardigan. dunno.gif

the cold doesn't really affect us as much as the sheer stupidity of drivers the first or second snowfalls.

if i could sell snow to the south, i'd make millions. tongue.gif

MommyToAshley replied: Oh goodness, sounds like a good time to curl up with a good book by the fireplace.

Stay safe. hug.gif
