Perhaps check YTZ Toronto Island airport Van man.
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

That's probably not going to melt until April.

Just as a comparison, Vancouver picked up a similar amount of snow in approximately four days in January 1971. And of course some places surrounding Victoria also picked up a similar amount of snow in just two or three days in December 1996.
lol 1971 thats cherry picking Vanc snow totals from 50 years ago? :lol: :lol:
January 2025 incoming..looks like more Pineapples..Happy New Year! :think:

Pearson airport might be having trouble accurately recording snowfall due to blowing and drifting. Apparently downtown Toronto has picked up 30-40cm since yesterday.
