70 and coastal flood warning here. Any moment now I should be hit by one of Crystal's wrenches flying through the air..

Your luck I cannot throw a wrench that far. :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

Truthfully, I love living here. Think of all the things your are missing, snowmobileing, ice fishing, skiing, snowboarding, pulling stupid drivers out of the ditch, driving 104500 lbs on top of a frozen lake, did I mension snowmobiling?. And we don't stop these activities when the weather hits -40, we just keep the beer under the hood of the snowmobile so it don;t freeez. :giggle:

That remindes me, did anyone see last weeks simpsons? The simpsons come to Canada so Abe (grandpa) can take advantage of cheeper drug costs. When the simpsons pull into Winnipeg (the capital of Manitoba) the welcome sign reads

"We were born here! Whats your excuse?"

Another funny line was "we'll sell you enough drugs to make Regina seen like Saskatoon!" (I guess its only funny if you live here)

what station are you watching that u heard that, every estimate I've heard today has been like 20"-36"

That's the storm we're getting tomorrow and Monday. We get a lot of Boston TV stations, so we usually have good advance warning of what the weater gods have in store for us. Whatever it is doing here today, it was doing yesterday in Boston. Now they're saying upwards of 40CM (16") by tomorrow midnight, and it's supposed to snow right through Monday! With 100km/hr (60MPH) wind! And this on top of the 24" we've already received this week in the previous two storms!

It's still no White Juan (the storm that gave us 38" over 24 hours last February), but if they keep upping the forecast it just may well turn into one...

Global warming??? This recent visitor to an oil rig off the Louisiana coast says not.

Still snowing here - I can reach out my back window and touch the snow drift. And it's a split entry house, so the window is 8 feet off the ground...
