Tried that. My older kid used the shovel and tried to make an igloo in the driveaway last year. :bang:

No shovel for them.

Third winter in a row with a 20+ cm snowstorm!

Same conditions in Harrison Mills. If these aren't blizzard conditions at the moment, not sure what are :D . 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?
