Wow, our snow wasn't that bad. I had to shovel but it's almost all gone already.
Mind you, I live in the most southern town in Canada, south of Northern California!
I lived up north in Elliot Lake for ten years and my snow piles would get so high that I couldn't throw the snow high enough and had to start another. One year there was so much snow that the garbage truck couldn't get through and I hand shoveled for the entire time. Now I live in a town that sees snow about 3 times a year and it disappears within a week or so but I bought a snowblower when I moved here, I've used it about 4 times in 4 years!- - Steve

Thanked: 552A lot of folks don’t realize that the northern part of the states around the Great Lakes gets a LOT of snow because of the lake effect. There are places in upstate NY where the snow gets much deeper than we see on the Ontario shores of the lakes. Very much lke what Steve’s picture shows for northern Ontario.

We actually get flurries here every few years but the last real snow here was 1996.

Yep, same thing here. Twas really beautiful actually, though we had to cover some plants and it broke a branch off my Redbud tree.
