Well aren't we the saucy prick today.

Since I live on the Rock and experience high winds on a regular basis I sort have known what was coming, however even this wind caught me a little off guard.

Waaaah, snow, call in the army
Toronto scolds St John's over the weather - how condescendingly Liberal.

that's not even snow...that's a "light dusting".

if TO residents want to see snow, come to London (or Lucan or Exeter, just north of the city as they are right in the snow belt), or even better, Owen Sound during the winter...or if they dare, Nfld and Labrador where they get several meters of snow.

Just stopped by Walmart to pick up Civ V and something for supper. Cars are missing windshields, siding missing on houses. Some cars half under water, Metrobus being taken off streets.

It was on route from work to home. I do not intend on leaving the house now that I am home. I will be snuggled up on the couch playing my game.

Hah, speak for yourself, my response is directed at the OP

But fine: We usually get at least one pretty nasty storm in December where winds are at around 90Km/h. Overturned semis scattered on the highways are inevitable.

That picture could have been photo shopped, when Mel did call the in the Army we had close to 4ft of snow in a few short weeks. Over 2 days it dropped 16inches of snow on the ground.
