Or, foster your children's love for snow and watch them volunteer to shovel even before their teenage years!
Tried that. My older kid used the shovel and tried to make an igloo in the driveaway last year.
No shovel for them.

-0.8ËšC and dumping. Now up to 22 cm.
Third winter in a row with a 20+ cm snowstorm!
It's called clown range for a reason.

30cm ruler is measuring 26cm on top of the recycle bin. 30cm might be possible after all.

I can't remember the exact criteria for a blizzard, but I would call it a blizzard here. Very low visibility in blowing snow, rapid drifting.
Same conditions in Harrison Mills. If these aren't blizzard conditions at the moment, not sure what are
. This is just the best snow storm. Will be hard to top it!!

Shutting down at 12:30 and hope to be back home in the banana belt before 1:30.
Eagerly awaiting to see how much has fallen since 7am -- seems like some of you guys think 30cm might be in reach?
