Fortunately that was a few days ago but they have had continued record snow fall in the Maritime Provinces.  We could use some snow here in Southern Ontario for our Family day weekend with the various winter festivals scheduled.  The St Thomas World Tubing Championships http://www.stthomas.ca/content/2017-world-tubing-championships had to bring in snow from mall parking lots and snow equipment to make new snow but hard to do with record high temps of 15.8°C yesterday and similar expected today.

Enjoying it,
Paul
