Well it's been quite an adventure here. A state of emergency has been declared, schools are closed and chaos has run rampant!! Ok..... chaos is not running rampant, but the other two things have happened. We've been hunkered down at home watching the news and taking it all in. It's been bitterly cold (it's a balmy -8 Celcius right now) so the roads have turned into sheets of ice. Yesterday and this morning gale force winds have been blowing the snow. It's useless for plows and salters to be on the road, because everthing they plow just blows right back onto the road.
A guy who works for us has been stranded on the 402 for over 24 hours in the white out and snow squalls. He was lucky enough to bunk up with a trucker for the night and we're hoping he's going to be able to get out sometime soon.
Here are some pictures from some news sites:
