Hi Jeff,
I've been working just south of Sudbury for the last four months and driving back home every two weeks, my last two trips through the Barrie to Parry Sound area have been hair-raising to say the least. Two weeks ago it tool me 8 hours to get from Guelph to Sudbury, drove through that horrid ice storm, and this time, through that snow storm which you've pictured. I was doing 70km/hr and was the fastest vehicle on the road.
Just north of Barrie was the worst conditions, I drove right down the middle of the highway with my hazards on and prayed for day-light!

Just watching the weather, and they are still reporting that some part of NY State got 115 inches of snow this pass week. I certainly hope those snow bound folks are safe.
As for us, we still haven't gotten anything other than a dusting a few times. BUT they are predicting a measurable amount starting tomorrow night. But won't or can't decide how much.
I don't think I'll be moving north or westward upon retirement. :-) :-)
