It's been snowing on and off in Edson for the past few days. Gets heavier and deeper closer to the foothills where I'm working at.

Here we go again. I can often work from home on crappy weather days but I really should be in the office tomorrow. I will have to see how 22x is in the morning. It was pretty special on the way home today between 84th St. E and Hwy 797 (Langdon Rd).

I hope they have it at least somewhat cleared by tonight. I am going to be pulling my old ford down to store at the new house.

You guys getting snow down there? I'm working in Prince George this week. We are getting a decent dump of snow tonight.

I think we are going to be around 4-6in of snow tonight. It rained most of yesterday. Today the temperature dropped from +3deg's C to -13deg's. So its a good 1/4in of ice under all the snow up here guys.

Drive safe everyone.

Brett and I went into Calgary for wings last night around 7. At the #2/Stony Trail interchange, could only see 50-100' in front of me. Cleared up pretty well. We were at the Regal Beagle for about two hours, came out and there was a good 3" of snow on the vehicles and roads. 16th ave and deerfoot were pretty deep in snow. But through it all, Airdrie really didn't get much. Snowed pretty good at Shepard today.

The snow wasn't the worst part of yesterday / last night. I live out towards Carseland and I stepped outside last night about 7pm to find that it was raining and -1C. 22x from the Langdon road to 84th St was nicely polished ice this morning. There was a bit of sand / gravel on the road, but it was still a bit of a white knuckle drive.
