The weather people on the internet say we got "21.2 mm" of precipitation, which I believe should be 21 cm of snow. That's 8.3 inches for non-metric types. Seems like more.
Don't try to get across the street at this crosswalk - not only can you not walk on the sidewalk because of the drift, and can you not reach the button for the walk signal, you couldn't make it over the snow bank to get onto the street.
And even if you made it over that snow bank, you'd be faced with this one on the other side. Thank goodness there are the all-important cars that get things plowed for them first, so you can use the driveways and entrances into malls.
At the short-cut through Plunkett, the snow has been piled high and blocks a paved path.
People have trampled a narrow path around the snow piles but I may start walking out another way.
Fortunately, the main link between Castlebrook and Plunkett has been plowed this year, for the first time in years. It's sort of no-man's-land but someone has got the message that people use it and now it has been plowed. Thanks!
I thought this little snow drift was perfectly shaped, except it must make it difficult for the resident dog to get out!
