F-View Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 More like "I'm that idiot who drives too fast in unsafe conditions because I overestimate how well I drive and how good my car and tires are." Was out earlier, watching morons going too fast, saw a few thud into each other, saw one do a u-turn and go into the curb... Even the best snow tires don't make the conditions optimal, but some people act like because they've got snow tires, they can actually go faster than in normal conditions. It is utterly moronic. umadbro congratulations, i can drive in snow, not everybody can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jester@wraiths.ca Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 umadbro congratulations, i can drive in snow, not everybody can Of course you can! You can probably drive better in a blizzard, speeding than anybody else could in good conditions and normal speeds. Human overconfidence and stupidity is what helps get rid of the unfavorable specimens, so I'm certainly not mad, just wondering how long till you become an entry in the Darwin awards. Funny how almost all of those things have stories about the guy who "thought" he could do this or that in dangerous conditions, and "thought" he was better than the others...

Wetcoaster Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Heard on the morning news today that its going to be one of the coldest winters in two decades... Bring on the Snow! That is the prediction. Vancouver, Western Canada facing record cold temperatures this winter As Canadians wrap up what for most has been one of the warmest October weekends in recent memory, they can brace themselves for the coming winter with a long-term forecast calling for thick socks and thicker skins. The forecast is for one of the coldest winters in the past 20 years for Western Canada, major snowstorms for Ontario and Quebec, and a drier than normal winter for Atlantic Canada, according to U.S.-based AccuWeather.com. That's not to say that blasts of Arctic air won't chill Canadians east of Manitoba, but those bitter blasts will be short. "You can be pretty confident that Western Canada will be pretty cold," said Brett Anderson, a senior meteorologist with AccuWeather.com. Anderson said temperatures out West will be up to five degrees Celsius lower than normal, meaning temperatures will drop below zero in Vancouver and below about -20 C in Edmonton. Vancouver will experience one of its coldest winters on record, Anderson said. "The worst of the cold is going to be in Western Canada," Anderson said. Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic provinces will see below average snowfall in December, but come January, things are going to change, Anderson said. "Its going to be a slower start and then in January, February, it's going to be fairly active," Anderson said. "That's when we're going see our significant snowfall events." The reason for more snow and more cold? La Nina, a phenomenon that occurs when water temperatures across the central and eastern Pacific are below normal. La Nina produces extreme cold across Western Canada during the winter while adding to snowfalls in Ontario and Quebec. Water temperatures this year are pointing to a moderate strength La Nina, Anderson said, which help with the predictions. This winter will see less snowfall in the Prairies, Anderson said, except in southwestern Alberta. Because the Great Lakes are running warmer than normal, the areas around the lakes will have a greater amount of lake-effect snowfall, Anderson said. http://www.canada.com/news/Vancouver+Western+Canada+facing+record+cold+temperatures+this+winter/5528542/story.html#ixzz1aWWQlU1A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
