wtf is up with this weather? everything outside was a skating rink. it took me about 30 minutes to clean the ice of my truck and i broke one of my ice scrapers in the process. power was also out for at least an hour here.


ice on my truck was about 1/4" thick

it even stayed attached to the hood when i opened it.

 

I got it, but Google seemed to lack on the Irish to English translation..

 

New problem called Global Snowing...

 

What is this "ice scraper" thing?

Snow? wazz' that?

 

it started raining around 11 am today, then changed to sleet shortly thereafter. we have a good 1/4-1/2" of sleet on the ground, it was just snowing a couple minutes ago. now its completely stopped. supposed to be wicked nice out tomorrow with temps in the low 60's.

 

lol. i would have used my heat gun but had no power.

i was just at my sisters house and looks worse over there

this was on the ground when i got there

this fell while i was taking my boots off.

and this is the neighbor behind my sisters place.

 

^man I don't think I'd park my truck under that tree like that

 

i didn't really look up when i parked the truck. not long after that picture was taken i moved my truck to somewhere safer.

 

Yeah it can do some damage. I lived in Ottawa in 98 and had a 10-12" branch break off a huge tree and onto the roof deck. It was an old masonry/timber home but still shifted some and cracked all over. Thankfully it was a rental.

 

Any of ya'll Canadians ever run across Mike Holmes? I love that guy! Need more shows here in the U.S. Can't even watch them online due to Geographical Restrictions....
