Well! You southern folk had some pretty awesome weather a few weeks ago when it still sucked up here, but let me tell you this!! Today was so wicked that, I think everyone should visit Thunder Bay, right on Lake Superior, cus, well, it's straight up sun tanning weather man!
That whole "global warming" thing is a joke, c'mon. It's April 3rd and we're getting 10+ inches.

We had some flurries as well out here in New Brunswick. I was quite surprised. It was nothing big, but still... its April.

Guilty as well, took the winter's off on Saturday.
This coming summer I'll let everyone know when I get car washes so they can be prepaired for rain.

I haven't bought the new rims or tires yet, so it's stockers for a while.
We're staying home this weekend... with a nice warm fireplace to ward off the dampness.
You guys out west enjoy that fluffy white s***, ok? :D

Hell, y'all swapped tires? I washed & waxed the exterior to within an inch of its existence last Friday :( Thank god I ran out of energy to tackle the interior or I would have been mondo PO'd at losing that as well to whatever crap falls from the sky over the next few days :angry:

I'm heading to TO tomorrow too, and definately not looking forward to it.
At least I haven't washed & waxed the pig yet, still has a layer of protective salt and road crud to protect it from whatever gets thrown at us.

Had a peek at the long range forecast. It will warm up after the Easter weekend but get this, it takes a huge downturn later on and snow is forecast for April 19th.

Oh and if you are in Toronto today there are ZERO salters/sanders out and the roads are "polished" ice/snow now and extremely slippery.
Amoung other things the NB DVP was closed altogether at Eastern Ave.

I heard an old saying on the radio this morning
" Don't change a thread until April is dead"
In my line of work, I consider winter to be from November to May. I always have a shovel and snowblower readily available until the beginning of May.
I really think all this snowy stuff is my fault, despite what I said above, I was THINKING of putting on the summer rims this weekend.

I hope they got the salters/sanders out at some point today, not looking forward to dealing with insane drivers on top of slippery roads.
Down here it was really slick, even after the sun showed up and started melting everything. And not a hint of a salt crew anywhere, as usual.
