So it's usually this time of the year when everyone in Toronto stare longingly at the snow outside, while folks in Vancouver go walking about in shorts and t-shirts.
Well...
there's something like 30cm of snow falling in BC, and +17C temps coming to Toronto this week (+12 today).
It's the end of November and people are driving around with their tops down!
woot!

Yeah this past weekend was awesome. Saw a ton of people out Saturday and Sunday with just tshirts on.
Saw people still riding their motorcycles to work this morning, and even a couple cars with the tops down.
If its still nice when I get out of work, the car may even get a bath!

Yeah, there's just a touch of snow on the ground out here. Looking at the tracks I made through the untouched parking lot at work this morning, about 8". That was in about a 24hr period. I know it's nothing compared to some of the snow that Ont etc gets but for here thats pretty substantial. A lot of people stuck, a lot of people grumpy.
Personally I love the stuff. Last week a few of us were talking about how depressing it was with 5 weeks of rain, I wasn't sleeping good, I know a few others weren't either. The snow came, totally changed the scenery, went out and played in it all day with my friends nephews and niece. Had a blast. Slept like a dog last night.
No name, Cheap and Slutty.

Are we the only two who realize this?! Or are the current Weather Network commercials on global warming not 'in your face' enough for everyone? :P

Well now that you mention it, the inside needs a good cleaning.
4 coffees in carrier on floor of passenger seat + jackass in a pickup who cuts you off = 1 big mess.

Yeah I'm loving thus week off, I washed that car and took care of some other things related to it since it's been so great.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.
