Yeah barely anything this area as well. Biggest problem was it turning into ice. I am prepared I got a really nice blower to take care of my snow needs. Will have to post a photo later, don’t have a current one.

That would put pay to most things in this country with the trains more than likely finding a reason not to run.

Its been years and years to be fair that this end of the country has seen any real bad weather. When i was young (so many years ago BigGrin ) we used to get proper seasonal weather. A lot of the winters now we do not even get the extreme cold that we used too.

Much to my dislike though (because its so damaging) the last few years have seen more and more strong winds happening right throughout the year. My dear old Mum puts it down to the planet being knocked off its axis by all these rockets and bombs being let off around the world BigGrin you never know - she could well have a point (school science - equals and opposites Confused ).

Thats a beautiful looking property in your picture by the way.
Happy Modelling

We have had 2 mild winters with less snow, but this year isnt looking so good. We get a lot of lake effect snow from Lake Ontario and it can dump 2-4 feet per day when it cranks up, but the roads have never closed even in really heavy snowfall.The biggest issues is the bitter cold and ice.On Sunday here the high temperature will be 7F (-14c).

I am surprised you didnt get more snow Joel.
