Here's yer snow...

[FordSVT]

My best friend's family lives outside of Quebec City, they sent him some photos from the past couple of weeks. I thought we had a decent amount of snow in my neck of the woods this year, but this is crazy! Some of you Brits might go blind.

But they learn to roll with it.

I'll admit I don't think I've ever seen quite *that* much snow. Came close a few times.

 

[backstept]

while Syracuse (where I live) is the snowiest metro area in the US (obviously other places get much more)
I've never seen that much snow in person!
must be great fun!

 

[Gertch]

Love the door print!

 

[Dr. Horrible]

That's fantastic! I could learn to appreciate snow like that.

Love the door print!

Oh yes.

That's fantastic! I could learn to appreciate snow like that.

Love the door print!

Oh yes.

Don't forget the snowmobile on the roof.

I didn't even notice it until I'd looked at the photos about a dozen times.

Right, Quebec wins, then...

That's awesome to see, though I hope there were no long-lasting ill-effects from the snow. Thanks for sharing!

Most likely low visibility- Kids playing while cars go by...

 

[Rincewiend]

Well, they can keep it, bring on spring...

also one would hope the roof would hold the weight of that snow

I can't help thinking that a lot of flooding must be on its way.

 

[Lindley]

Roofs are designed to shed the snow before it accumulates to dangerous weights. That's why they're not flat.

Flooding is rarely a problem after a heavy snow. Depends on the house of course.

 

[RoJoHen]

Flooding is rarely a problem after a heavy snow.

We clearly live in different parts of the world.

 

[Lindley]

As I see it, if your house is in a snow-heavy location and floods when the snow around it is melting, then your house isn't very well-designed.

 

[Mallory]

Awesome snowfall. And I'm glad it happened to somebody else.

 

[RoJoHen]

I'm not even talking about the house necessarily.

I was more thinking of roads.

 

[Trippy]

^yes, the roads will be awful come this Spring...unless we get a slow melt, like melt a little, freeze a little, and so on.

We got a lot of snow in TO and area (like I've said, the snow mountain on our apt. front lawn goes to the second floor). Quebec has us beat

 

[Holdfast]

The unusual "roof ornament" is the funniest bit.
