Are they still quite pleased to have been a part of the action unlike a certain other major city slightly to their south?

Snow coming down heavily, shoveled the driveway and measured again before heading out to work, 13-14 cm already! I guess I may get up to 20 cm by the end of the event. I have to say it’s totally over performed.

Just cold enough to be sparkly in the street lights when I woke before dawn.

I estimate I'm approaching 20 cm. Just drove in to work in Abby, so no more reports until this evening.

It was almost freezing rain when I got to Marshall road and McCallum, near my old stomping grounds. Still a decent amount of snow there, but more in west Abby, as usual.
