Can’t. I don’t have backup and the city bylaw guys are picky about their sidewalks. :roll:

You seem surprised. Widespread 20 - 25 was my call.

It's snowing at a crazy rate right now.
My personal feeling is that this could seriously OVER perform for many areas, even more than the top forecast amount of 20-25 cm. I'm no expert but I'm just going off the fact that many places already have 10cm plus, the precip rates are increasing, there's many hours to go yet and it's supposed to get colder, not warmer.

This is what we wait for on here! A widespread, major snowstorm with lasting duration that doesn't turn to rain right away. I mean, in all reality this is one of our VERY rare PERFECT events. :clap: :D :flakey:

What I mean is farther the snow fall, the more evaporation of the snowflake especially when it's very cold. In todays cases probably that doesn't matter as much the temperature is pretty equal over the different layers.
