Settle down guys, that's how much snow we've had here north of Oshawa since Thurs night. My car trailer was bare then, measured the snow this morning after I shoveled my way to shop to get the blower.  Talked to son inlaw in Oshawa & they have no snow!! That's only 25mi south of here, thats the difference when you get north of the "ridges" Still snowing heavy & will be at the "blowing" again!!!!

Stiill snowing in old TO as well. I don't see that much accumulating but we've cleard the driveway three times in since yesterday morning. The big city creates a lot of heat and downtown there is a city underground so starts to snow melts on contact with the ground. Road crews have a new technique as well, they pre-treat roads with a sodium solution and it helps. The snow mounds left by the ploughs beside the road on my street are only about 18" high at this point.

They use the sodium solution here but it seems to be more corrosive than road salt.

when I was driving tractor-trailer & they started using that solution on the 401, we had more "problems" with electrical connections & light failures than ever before!!!  Highly corrosive "crap" but they don't care about that as long as the road is "bare" & the 4 wheelers can drive "way too fast" for conditions!!! THATS OK???
