I live near Lucan ONT, CANADA. and so far we got approx 150 centimetres or 5 feet, all in 3 days CRAZY!, and where supposed to get 30-45 centimeters by the end of the week!. 20 more today

I'm in the middle of Canada and it hasn't snowed here in over a week.   We got a few good dumps starting at the end of November and accumulated approx. 14" or so.  Supposed to get some more tonight.  Only around three inches though.  Hardly worth the effort......  Gimme SNOW!!!!

White Christmas?

All we get are flurries but the cold is sure coming our way. I'd rather get a few feet of relatively warm snow than bitter cold with no snow. sadly this doesn't look like teh year for us to get a normal amount of snow.

Lucan reported at noon today they have received 167 centimeters so far...15-25 more by sunday INSANE!....it was a sad day today my blower snapped an axle in my diff shes outta commision for now. all parts are discontinued :(.....gotta make a few calls to some guys l know to see if they got anything used if not l'll have to get a new axle made by a machine shop in town shouldn't be to big a deal.

Western Most Canada is British Columbia, NOT Ontario, which lies in the EASTERN, and NOT the western Half of Canada,  So You said that Southern British Columbia Got 5 Feet of snow ?  I Think Not.

You are sort of right. He meant to say Ontario, not Canada, IMO. You can't get much more SOUTH though in Canada. Edit: Note that he did NOT say southern West Canada.

Wow! That's a lot of snow.  We're getting around 16" of snow today in Minnesota.  I've already been snowblowing and it's been fun today.  I'm hoping to have most everything cleared late today when it starts to get rather cold.  Sunday the low will be -10F with the windchill around -30F.

Lucky you!!! I'm North of Toronto, expecting 10-20cm about 10 Inch tonight, soooooooo looking forward to it....lol Getting the Toro 826 out and the single stage Toro for the walkways(the pooch trail..lol). I hope it isn't a wash like other times when they say a storm is coming and we get nothing. All the best to everyone!!!! Tis the season!!!!!!

This is really beginning to get irritating! All we're supposed to get today/tomorrow is a bunch of rain while the mid west and Canada gets all the white stuff. I implore upon the Snow Gods to be a bit more equitable with their white treasure!!!

I'm much further North than you are and we are getting a heavy dose of rain up here as I type. I do not think 2011 is going to be a very snowy year for us.
