It's 5:25 AM and the wind and snow are getting brutal.I guess that the wind is a constant 40mph with gusts to 70+.The snow didn't start until after 12 but it's only the past 1/2 hour that things have gotten rotten.I guess that everything will be closed down tomorrow so that better half will get a day off and a long weekend.It's funny that she works with the Department of National Defence and that they close down at the slighest sign of inclement weather.I can imagine in a war situation where a colonel won't send his troops into battle because there's a threat of rain in the forecast.Anyway when you live only 200' from the stormy North Atlantic, getting the worst of the worst weather is a given.I guess that the Missus will finally get to try out the snow shoes that I got her for Christmas,she's been chomping at the bit to try them since she opened them Christmas morning.I didn't get the forecast at the evening news but if the snow continues to build up at its current rate we'll be having at least a foot of it and more with the drifts that come with high winds like this. All in all I get to go 4 wheelin' tomorrow.

Guitslinger...I am trying to have some sympathy here for your big snow storm...but when you live in a place where you can actually buy a set of snow shoes and give them to your Mrs. and she don't kill you...well you gotta know that storm was coming sooner or later :lol: :lol: :lol:
