Getting another major blast of winter here in eastern Canada. Up to 50 cm of snow and very strong winds, gusting to 100km/h. Nothings moving so it's a relaxing day in.

That is a good excuse to stay inside and watch movies/play video games.

That might be a little bit chilly. Present temp is -14°C with a wind chill of -24C. The sun is out now and snow has stopped but nothing is moving. Will go out after and play.

Our "Winter" has all but vanished. Today's high is expected to be 56/13 with a low of 40/4. Last night it was raining in Park City, our major ski center.

Looking out our front window at 11:30 this morning after the sun came out. Plow has made a single track up the street but you couldn't get to it.

I'd just forward/reverse the car until I'd reach the road.
Works every time and my drive way is about the same length

East of the country has a snow fall warning, the biggest snowfall in the last 100 years
I'm in the west though so we should only receive half of that.

That's a Corolla, not a jeep. No need as guy comes round with a big John Deere and blower and cleans it out. I supervise from window.
