Normally, I would say yes, but I can imagine the chaos that would ensue with all the snow melting so quickly.

Snow squalls and lake effects are where I draw the line when it comes to winter living in this country
I don't like the bone chilling cold in Vancouver, either though. Gross

makes me think, we here in the lower mainland had a warmer winter this year. But winter is not over yet, so who knows. We might get a big dump in march or April.

Man, I'm having the time of my life in Toronto. I left California for this!!
I let the snow pile all the way to the max this morning, before I took out this beast:
I recently picked up this Greenworks Pro 80V snow thrower. It just absolutely, completely, obliterates and launches the snow way the fk outta there. And it has a controllable chute, so that I can aim it all into a pile, rather than out onto the street or into my neighbors' driveways like with my old cheap one lol.
I'm having the time of my life out here in the GTA. Between the mass snow-clearing and the all-wheel drifting through the back road powder, I've never had so much fun lol. Quote:

For you parents, if you let your kid move to the GTA, you fucked up. |

I actually got the tool-only version: I already had a 4Ah and 2Ah from my lawnmower.
So it was only $270 on clearance!!
Phenomenal smiles-to-$ ratio. Right up there with 2nd gear pulls to 17,000rpm on the R6.
The only thing that makes me sad is that this kind of snow dumping only happens a couple times a year.

I used the battery-powered blower to my advantage but given how deep the snow was, it barely made a dent.

Double ouch: Sold out! | Yeah that's a terrible deal. But I guess it's kinda like buying an AC unit in the middle of a heat wave.
Wait til summer to pick up a snow obliterator!

I'm not sure how this applies to existing gas-powered lawn mowers. My dad's Honda has been super reliable and it is gas-powered (4-stroke.)
