Langley is still getting rain/wet snow. FedEx bumped their pick up cut off time an hour because of the weather. Half a days worth of AOG packages aren't going until tomorrow. I was dealing with them all day for other stuff and not one mention of an early cutt off.

It's been snowing steadily all day in the Joyce-Collingwood area. And from what I hear Snake Hill in Coquitlam (down to Pomo) is closed and Mariner is fucked.

reading online that there is a big car fire on hastings and holdom and traffic either single lane or not getting through at all... some guy was gunning it hard trying to get up the hill and the engine went boom?

meanwhile this is my view in surrey...



i want to go home

The snow was coming down nonstop for a few hours in the White Rock/South Surrey earlier, seems like none of the city crews weren't able to keep up. Oh seems like the snow's started again as I'm typing.

Was the first car at a red light on a bit of an incline in front of a high school just as school ended, had extreme difficulty finding grip.

All the kids started looking at me as my car was revving up and down thinking dis ricer

I'm suprised they didn't shutdown the school.

Saw 4 accidents today to the office. Saw like 5-6 buses stuck up hills getting to site.

Just checked the forecast, supposed to snow more on Thursday, Friday. I'm sure the city is going to implode.

the dumbest thing today I saw driving into the office downtown was freaking golf cart sized snow plows and city crew working to clear snow from the bike lanes on Dunsmuir, but i didn't see one single truck or worker working on the streets or sidewalks. Seriously who is going to even bike in a snow storm, Moonbeam needs a kick in the head.

agreed, where the eff is the priority.

Furthermore, city crews knew about the snowfall, yet roads were shit out there. Wtf. Especially Burnaby.
