Great pics. I'm glad I don't have to dig myself out. Last time we had deepish snow in my part of England I grabbed my spade, and set to clear a path. On the second shovel full (I didn't need to count very high!) my back gave in with an excruciating stabbing pain and I was laid up for a week with strict instructions that I was never to attempt that again. 😕

@FreddieUK Oh shit. It will do that to you for sure. It's also almost cliche that older men like myself have heart attack shoveling lol

@JimboSaturn Find a younger person to help. They'll be able to call an ambulance as well in the case of an emergency. 😄

@FreddieUK 🤣 My daughter say "don't have a heart attack dad"
"ok, thanks for that, I'll keep that in mind" I tell her

Brrr!
Lovely photos but I'm glad that's not normal weather where I am, in Southern England so approximately at the latitude of Labrador and Winnipeg.
Sow and ice are beautiful in the right places but must be a complete pain otherwise.

This must be true because that is the 15th house on this street like that! LOL
Keep warm.
Keep warm.

@WillaKissing The funny thing, there are only 7 houses on my street :P
WillaKissing · 56-60, M
@JimboSaturn I figured that the way they run numbering for homes. But it sounded funny to me. LOL

@Carla I used to shovel a path for my dogs but they are old and don't even bother going off the deck anymore.
Carla · 61-69, F
@JimboSaturn mine still want to go away from the house. I wish they'd go on the porch. Less trouble scooping it.
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Carla So true, trudging out in snow trying to find there poo is a lot of fun!

Just a guess - was your home built in the seventies? (Angel brick was big back then)
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@rinkydinkydoink Yeppers! It is very 1970's I still have my kitchen to redo. Before the roof was brown and shutters and doors were salmon. Even the house number was orange and gold.

Alberta? I don't think Calgary has that much snow right now
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Justafantasy This system hit more of Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritimes.

@JimboSaturn out west we've had cold for awhile. Couple weeks now where -20 is a high
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Justafantasy Yes, I know! I watch on the news. My teammates are from Calgary, so I like to see their weather too.

Looks just like Wisconsin USA
HumanEarth · F
So did we
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@HumanEarth This system came up from the States, I think much of the eastern portion of the country and the mid west got some kind of precipitation.

Hope you have a snow blower!
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Keeper I don't actually. I like the exercise. I can actually shovel faster than a snowblower but of course its a lot harder lol
Carla · 61-69, F
@JimboSaturn this stuff is so cold. Light.
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Carla Ya nice light snow at least.
Wallflow3r · 26-30, F
It’s taking forever for the snow to melt 🥶
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Wallflow3r I think this year it will be end of March before we see bare ground.
