huge shoutout to the New Westminster city workers for plowing the roads yall are the real MVPs :fuckyea: |
The trucks were rolling all night in Langley. Was hoping the office would get closed, but shutting down 2 days in a row would pwn us during this busy time. |

avatar very much related to your reaction to the plowed roads this morning? |
About 4" of fresh powder where I live in Coquitlam. Took nearly an hour to get up the street, living on the bottom of a hilled cul-de-sac did not work out well for my Conti DWS on a FWD car. Fiancée has the 4WD with Blizzaks which managed much better than I did. Main roads are all fine on the way out to South Cambie area. |
coquitlam main roads were ok, hastings was clear. pretty easy drive in from coquitlam to downtown this morning driving up to whistler friday afternoon then leaving yesterday afternoon was sure fun...4 wheel unplanned drift will sure make you pucker |
-heard a person's car on our block get stuck in the ice this morning. There was only about 3 cm of snow in my area of East Van last night. -fairly easy commute to work today. :D |
South Van, another EASY commute along Marine Dr. Must be people taking transit? Absolutely no congestion at Knight St. bridge, I can really get to like these conditions. |
https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/bc-74_metric_e.html So the worst may not be over for the people in higher elevations. Projected to be -7 to -9C over night for the next few days. |
My co-worker didn't make it in to Port Kells and he's 20 minutes away however the secretary who lives in Burnaby bossed it. I texted him and let him know the Secretary has bigger balls then he does and reminded him what a pussy he is. |

Alex Fraser bridge is closed again. :pokerface: In all the years that bridge has been open and all the winters it's been through, I've never heard of it closing because of ice bombs. Now it's a regular thing? Wtf |
^^^ Well that just sucks. Wait out rush hour at a pub, if you can! All the major Langley roads have been plowed. Some of the backroads are plowed, too. Also, fuck that intersection with the stop signs by the Events Center |

dammit. this means the pt. mann and patullo are going to go to hell after work today, if not already :cry: |
I had to drive from East Van to my doctors office in North Delta, and then to work in Richmond this morning. Used the Alex Fraser both times, no issues. I suppose if they view it as a safety risk, they have to close it until they get it cleared. |
they must've just closed the whole bridge recently... it was open but both right hand lanes on each side of traffic were shut down |
RCMP officer pointed at mewhile he was driving by in the morning. He probably knew what I was up to. |
Alex Fraser shut down both directions. Damn. Falling ice. |
Google Maps traffic is crazy right now. Dark red for the 99 southbound to the tunnel all the way from Bridgeport. New West is a gong show. |
Any places in Van/BBY/COQ where we can get salt? I got mine over the weekend, just asking for a co-worker |
^ can't remember who said earlier in this thread but check the pet stores |
Yah, PetsMart has ice melt that is safe for pets and humans. I got 2 bottles. Its like $10 for 3.8kg. Not sure if they have it anymore. |
Alex Fraser is open now! |
It's -1 out in Richmond, dropping fast. All the wet roads are becoming ice, especially in my neighborhood. Even with my snow tires I almost hit the outside of the round about when the road was black ice |
All times are GMT -8. The time now is 05:03 PM. | |
