Can we talk about something
other than snow....please!

Happy Valentines Day!

It has been a tough week…..for many reasons. It has prevented me from writing as much as I would like to. The snow continues to be the main story. The banks are so high it is becoming dangerous for both pedestrian and drivers. The crews are exhausted, plowing almost every second day. The most recent snowfall yesterday dumped 10-20cm of snow on the region. This has pushed Kemptville close to the 200cm mark with Ottawa at 274cm and Toronto at 148cm including 70cm this month alone.

More is on the way. An Alberta clipper will bring 5-10cm to the region overnight tonight. On Sunday a very potent storm will approach the Great Lakes. Computer runs are a little off on whether snow or rain will fall. Bet on a mix of precipitation - heavy at times with strong winds from Sunday noon till Monday night in the area. It is our first Family Day in Ontario. Good day to sleep in and maybe see a movie.

Be safe…more details soon on the upcoming storm.
