February 16, 201511 yr Author We did lose power, but for less than 2 hours. Got lucky. We got about 18 inches overnight. The big problem is it's been so cold that we haven't had any slightly warmer days to melt anything. Snow mounds 10-15 feet high around and counting. We had a bit of a leak this morning from an ice dam coming through a window. Snow from the roof has been cleared and rock salt applied, crossing fingers it melts.
February 16, 201511 yr Who helps you to clear the snow? Is there a service or you and your family does it?
February 19, 201511 yr Bad enough that a guy plows snow on a toilet https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gtShXoPfdHs
February 19, 201511 yr If The Weather Channel is correct, tonight it will be warmer in my freezer than it will be outside.

February 20, 201511 yr Woke up to -14 this morning.... :( That's the "actual" temp..not the wind chill...the windchill reading is exactly at F**KING COLD!! Makes me glad I am still home "rehabbing" ;)

Good news - it Dropped down to 30 celcius today and seriously cold under 20 celcius now .... Dreading winter ... Just say'n !!
March 9, 201511 yr Author Time to melt some of those ice walls! Supposed to be 40 today with a few flurries. I like flurries and 40, it feels like we are living in the tropics :)
March 11, 201511 yr Cooling down here - was only 26 celcius today ... Before you know it I will be whinging about the cold ... I mean sometimes it gets to single figures celcius here :-). Seriously - I have seen on the news here what you have gone through ..so even I'm wishing your summer comes soon!!
