  1. The PC term is "climate change".

    Wow, really? How about the ACCURATE term is "climate change". It involves more precipitation, colder winters, hotter summers. IE More extremes. More violent weather.

    I really hope you were being sarcastic.

  2. I measured it in South PoCo yesterday, we have 19 inches. 48 cm. Some places had up to 20 cm more, from what I hear.

    Nevertheless, I'm loving it- I went snowshoeing around poco yesterday. It was pretty awesome.

  3. This city sucks when it comes to SNOW :angry:

    They can even clear the main streets, so unless you can avoid the bad drivers out there and know what you are doing (in terms of driving in the snow), you are fracked.

    I was driving on Kingsway on a pile of snow and mush, and there isn't even one plow truck that will clear the streets. Why can't they just put salt and sand on the main streets so people who don't have a truck, could be able to get somewhere. What are we paying high taxes for, when it feels like a 3rd world country.

    Lol. I drive a firefly and I get around no problem. It's not the car, it's the driver (or lack thereof) and how they drive. My firefly was driving unplowed streets and parking lots at 1 oclock last night. It was fine. Just learn how to drive.

    The top one is similar to the original, and I just liked the effect I put on the second one. HURRAH FOR COLD! It's spectacular! I love it.

    (This was the sunset this afternoon, over the Fraser river.)

  5. I got sick last night because of the cold....ugh.

    You CAN'T get sick because of cold, unless we're talking hypothermia. Which you're not. Cold may slightly lower the effectiveness of your immune system.

    I'm pretty sure people are healthier in cold climates, which are not conducive to bacteria.

  6. wow this global warming sure is comming down. we must have a foot or so of global warming on the ground here.

    Good selectiveness. It certainly has nothing to do with the mass of arctic air, does it?

    The people on this board are kind of ridiculous. I knew this already, but what's with all the complaining? It's barely cold at all. I was hiking today on Eagle Ridge, it was about -15 where I was and it was beautiful, crisp, and refreshing. I wish we had more of this weather.

  7. MORE SNOW ON THE NORTH SHORE MOUNTAINS!! NOW!!! 150cm will fall on Monday !!! hopefully... even though its impossible...

    Haha that would be terrifying...

    I hope we don't get too much snow in the mountains this year. Last year we had a 131% snowpack compared to the usual, which = late melt, which = bad bugs all summer long, and a reduced summer hiking season. I was not happy.

  8. all these plans sound good

    but maybe they should look into approving some routes first

    as i know some friends of mine who go to capilano and live in Coquitlam and have to take 2 sometimes 3(depending on the time) buses to and from school

    Mercy. Why are they going to cap? Douglas is much closer, and pretty much equivalent in pricing.

  9. I'm sick of the cold. GLOBAL WARMING PLZ KTHX

    Understand the term climate change? Cause that's what we're experiencing right now. More extreme weather.

    No such thing as global warming.

    It's snowing hard but only sticking to grass and dirt in south poco.

  10. simply amazing outside unless u have to drive right now

    Dude driving in this is fricken amazing, i love it. I was just out driving around for an hour, working on my snow control and practicing drifting. It was great.

  11. -37 up here in PG with the windchill.

    The lower mainland really does panic whenever it even snows a little.

    No kidding, I drove into Burnaby from Poco today, people seriously don't know how to drive in good conditions, but in snow it's like being surrounded by clowns with no legs riding unicycles.

    It's UGLY.

    Conversely, I trained myself in how to drive in snow, and I make it a point to take my (Pos) firefly out in the snow and drift around and see how it handles. It's very useful.

  12. shhtening snow

    It's what now?

    Anyways... weird day. I woke up at 7:30, when the sun came up I could see it. Then it disappeared. Then I saw blue sky above me. All the while it was snowing. Still snowing a little.
