Title: Canadian snow
Post by: Manky Monkey on November 23, 2008, 01:58:52 PM
My brother in law, Baggie, in Nova Scotia, Canada sent in these photos of this week's snowfall.
He says:

We had 14" in 4 hours - the quickest snowfall in 30 years.  It's continued to snow most of the day - probably another 12" since these photos were taken.  It was 20 degrees last weekend and now minus 11.  Although it was forecast since Wednesday, it's still a bit of a shock to the system!  But is has given us a chance to try out the new Snowblower, (with heated handles no less!), and for Freddie to get out on his sled!

Half an inch!  When I first moved to the south coast from Worcestershire it really made me laff, as soon as there were a few flakes all the mums started panicking about whether they should fetch the children home from school!

Our friends have a bloody great place in British Columbia.

Fifty miles to the supermarket, steering round the bears.

Have been offered a job there.
