Okay......enough.
Yet another snowstorm rolled though last night and this morning, leaving a fresh 8". At this point 8" seems like a dusting. It's been nearly 25 years since I've seen snow depth like this, if I were to stand on our front lawn it would be neck deep on me, and I'm 5'8". To add to the fun, my snowblower decides to break the auger belt. It's far past the point of pushing it around, removal or melting are the only options. We take our lives in our hands leaving the driveway, both directions are blocked solid from view by the banks. Driving at night is adventurous, there's so much snow everywhere that only shades of white are visible.....few reference points to verify you're still actually on the road. I forget what asphalt even looks like. I used to think our parent's generation told tall tales about snow reaching the treetops just to make the stories interesting. A few more nor'easters and we'll be up where the crows nest. Oh, and did I mention there is more snow coming for Tuesday?
Welcome to Global Warming. It's gonna get worse.
Dr. David Viner, from 10 years ago:
{However, the warming is so far manifesting itself more in winters which
are less cold than in much hotter summers. According to Dr David Viner,
a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the
University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will
become a very rare and exciting event.
Children just arent going to know what snow is, he said.}
I apologize for being a tech dunce, but here is a URL depicting a scene in Dieppe, next door to Moncton. At least the young lady and friend seem to be enjoying the snowpocalypse.

The Nobel committee lost any semblance of credibility when they awarded the Nobel Prize to that clown who invented the internet, and to that other guy in the White House--not for his accomplishments, but for his (perceived) potential.
You got that right, srithanochai! Got it piled up hgigh in my development, and the landscapers were trucking off snow last week. They say we may be getting more again this Thursday. I hope not. I'm ready for summer! A little global warming would be nice about now!
