Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Kayakman replied to Leeds Wire's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other Sports
That is not a snowfall...that doesn't even qualify as a whisp of snow. The upcoming week here is an average forecast but it has the potential to hammer us if the squalls remain stationary for a long period of time...we'll probably get a couple of feet this week but it could be as high as 4 feet this week, all depends on the movement of the squalls...I figure about a meter this week.. Issued: 5:00 AM EST Sunday 10 December 2017 date Detailed Forecast Today Flurries and local snow squalls. Local amount 5 cm. Wind becoming west 30 km/h gusting to 50 this morning then becoming north 30 gusting to 50 this afternoon. High minus 2. Tonight Flurries and a few local snow squalls ending this evening then mainly cloudy with 60 percent chance of flurries. Local amount 2 cm.

Sometimes you don't know what you've got until its gone...I know...I know...its a song lyric but true. Hopefully all the hoses to the kegs in the basement were leak proof,,,if not... well,,,, that would be a real tragedy! -

I always suspected the Artillery and Combat Engineers were up to no good together...now I have my proof! Good story...must have been a British Unit though...if that had been me I certainly would have sent over the Warrant to commandeer that vehicle...talk to the Major about it later...the men would be watching and the men would like this (especially the Warrant)...win them over and all that jazz ya know. Thanks for the free backhoe Man. -

I know all about forward observation posts!; I used to construct them so the artillery tourists could have somewhere to hide out of the weather conditions...then they would leave after getting to watch the fun and I would be tasked with taking them down! I know (knew?) the game. And you can have as many packs/batteries that you want if you are self propelled or dumping it in jeep...carrying a heavy pack for a short stroll doesn't count! We all know who the real human mules are...but I like you artillery guys anyways...always good for some comic relief in the mess! -

Warnings 10:59 AM EST Friday 08 December 2017 Snow squall warning in effect for: Bruce Peninsula - Sauble Beach - Tobermory Owen Sound - Blue Mountains - Northern Grey County Saugeen Shores - Kincardine - Southern Bruce County Snow squall activity will persist into this evening and are expected to weaken overnight. Snowfall rates of a few cm per hour are likely under the strongest snow squall bands. However, the bands are expected to shift somewhat which will help limit accumulations. Local snowfall amounts may exceed 15 cm under the heaviest snow squalls. Highways 21, 6 and 10 are likely to be affected. Prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions. Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility in some locations. If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop. Consider postponing non-essential travel until conditions improve. -

Put the car in reverse and hit the gas hard as I could as I pounded into the giant snowbank at the end of the laneway...barely made it through and hope I didn't damage the car...shoveled the laneway three times yesterday....the big lug is back from university and said he would plow it...better be done by lunch or there is going to be big trouble!....wife is worried that i might be too hard on the lad! Ah the joys of winter! -

Cat is stringy, like old goat, so is only good in stew cooked for a long time...make sure you have dental floss on hand...also in addition to the onion, wild leeks and carrots make for a nice gravy too! Note: The finest chunk of meat kiilled and gutted is porcupine if you attach it to a stick and char over an open fire...tough to clean though....flesh is pinky and so tender...literallly melts in your mouth like candy flosss...delicious: "I love all animals...they're delicious!"
