That photo doesn't even really show how much goddam snow there is here. The people on the first floor? Well, the snow is half-way up their windows. As in, open the window, and a foot of snow will slide in the house. The big humps of snow in that pic? There's no bushes or walls or anything there except for right next to the buildings where there are bushes. It's all flat lawn. Driving down the road is like driving down a trench, the snowbanks are easily 10 feet tall. I heard we got about 51 inches of snow in the last three weeks. Every week, we're getting more than a foot.

After 4 Hours of snow shoveling the driveway, I can kinda unburry the camaro. Thank god for a tarp lol

Thats about 72" snow fall in four days and it was still snowing (about 180cm snow)

DJ ATOMIX · 02-17-2015, 06:28 PM

This is what the trunk of the Camaro looked like after 180cm of snow fell. For the record, I had the car completely clean with no snow before this snow fall. Thats how much if accumulated to the point that the snow just fell off at the peak.

I removed the snow as soon as I found out how bad it was. I was away for the weekend and couldnt get a chance to relieve the weight :(

ChrisBlair · 02-17-2015, 06:29 PM

Yeah, but you Albertans get 60 inches of snow in four days during July. I'm more interested in how long it took to clear off the rink in the back yard.

Thats hard to beleive.

We got 3 inches of snow yesterday, usually it only snows once or twice here in SE Va. Most everything shuts down and not much traffic on the roads. I have my wife take me to work so I don't get any salt on and under my car.

Kept mine in the garage. Drove the Wife's Journey.

AzItaliaSS · 02-17-2015, 07:41 PM

all of those pics are the reason AZ cars drive a good price at auction as mentioned at Barrett on the air this year. Why have a garage and not put your car in it is a concept I will never understand no matter where you live. But I guess if you wanna live there enjoy it maybe, or maybe put sleds on the front and turn it into a full blown snowmaro mobile.

Actually we haven't been getting much snow lately, we have been facing a drought the past 10 years. Eastern Canada and U.S apparently get the most snow. We usually get about 150cm the entire years worth which isnt a crazy amount.

We should be snow free by the middle of March if warm weather continues here.

Around my house last night probably about 1 inch of sleet. Right outside my garage door it drifted to about 6 inches. But my car, newly waxed on Saturday, remains inside. Maybe tomorrow I'll venture out.

I heard north america is experiencing the start of a dry cycle that happens every 1000 years or some crap like that.
