earlier this week we had our 3rd snowstorm of the season... that in and of itself is fairly unusual as we tend to get one snow (rarely a "storm") a year that lasts for maybe an hour and IF anything sticks, it's gone by the next day.
Each snowfall this season has lasted for several hours and the snow has stuck around for at least a week. Throw in really really cold temps (for Victoria) and ... I think it was 6... major windstorms, constant overcast and frequent rain and so on... not a happy winter.
At this point, I'd cheerfully kill someone for a week of sunlight.
I really hope Shortsmas comes early this year.

Okay, nice morning walk to school. Snowing and from past few days melting ice on street. Snow covered all ice and ofcourse i had to fall nearly on my butt. Luckily i only fell on my knee and right hand.

I can't complain about snow!

We got close to 40cm (I'm thinking 1.5 feet?) of it today. 2nd major snowstorm this week.
Kinda odd because the weather was almost spring-like almost 2 weeks ago!

Now we've got 15mph winds blowing all of it everywhere.
Tomorrow morning's gonna be real fun to shovel...
