Do gale force winds and floods count since we have not got any snow here. Yet?  :embarrassed:

Whats all the fuss, around here it arrives in October & if we are lucky it might be gone in April. Then again we once had a 3 foot fall in June, I have the pictures, I think it was June of 1986, in fact I have seen it snow in all 12 months of the year. Mick B. PS =This year we have had very little though, we have sent most of it over to you folks.

Same here in Ontario ... very little white stuff this year. We decided to let you lot "over there" have some fun for a change. We did send the economy pack though, as we know you are not used to the white stuff ok2

Cheers,

Tom
