Arrrgh Matey! The White Fluffies Be Upon Us!

Posted by Ryan C / January 14, 2007

Get those snow tires on, get the shovel out of the garage, and prep your lock de-icers, as it seems winter has finally caught up with us! Provinces like Saskatchewan and Manitoba had to deal with temperatures as low as -48 celcius with wind chill last week, and that cool air thingie has been moving east. The snow is set to begin in the evening and pick up over night, leaving us with 10-15 centimeters of snow, according to the (not always) reliable weather network. While I don't drive, I have already been nominated to dig out the car on Monday morning. I suppose I could say no, but that would mean that I'd have the pleasure of actually sleeping in the car tonight.

Joy, it just started snowing this very second... Picture courtesy of me looking out the window this morning.

I woke up this morning and was so happy to see this tiny little amount of sweet, sweet whiteness on the road.

"Arrrrrrgh" = expression of frustration

"Arrrrrrrh!" = expression of pirateyness!

"Yaaarrrrrrrh!" = also acceptable pirateyness expression.

I'd like to think it was both an expression of frustration AND piratey goodness.

It is really gross out there today. And I like it.
