down here in Toronto it is ice pellets freezing rain and snow same storm, "Winter storm with 15 to 20 cm of snow and ice pellets, freezing rain, and strong winds Tuesday and Tuesday night.

Snow will begin early Tuesday morning. Snow will mix with or change to ice pellets later Tuesday. Strong easterly winds gusting to 80 km/h will cause reduced visibility in blowing snow. Total snowfall and ice pellet amounts of 15 to 20 cm are possible before ending Wednesday. There is also a risk of freezing rain. Travel is likely to be affected.

This weather is associated with a Colorado low that will cross Southern Ontario Tuesday and Wednesday." Blo**y Colorado weather can't it just stay south lol


No lows in Colorado.


Only highs.

lolol, well all of Canada is legal now too, though inventory has been spotty at best. Massively underestimated demand, smh not sure what planet they were on but toronto probably had in the range of 200 illegal dispensaries, all making good money .... so add in the extra clientelle that legalisation brings and then buy 1/4 of the inventory the rest had...smart move... given our premier has a history as a high school drug dealer and considers himself a businessman he isn't very smart at the numbers game

Wish I could work from home at times like this.


But it isn't possible to build airplanes remotely.
I dunno, I feel like you could fit a wing assembly in the shed of yours ;-)

MMMMM coffee just what I need. I’ll grab one and a bacon sandwich for my morning commute on the subway (I stopped driving to work most days. Winter I transit rest of year I bike the 17km most days (which will deal with winters bacon fat)
For me it's usually bus if I don't walk the 5 and a bit kms to work. In the summer I go by ferry, then walk approx 2 km. Nice with a bit of fresh air in the morning.

on nice winter days i will walk 7km or so to the st clair subway and transit the rest (and many days even in storms i walk the last 2.5 km or so from the subway as at rush hour in winter streetcars get badly held up all the time by idiots parking into the lane

The wings are about 90 feet long, so part of one would stick out 30 feet or so.

Mornings folks!
At -15°C (5°F) it's pretty warm here this morning (compared to the last week...).

Drinking a nice hot mug of coffee and eating some scones. Ready to face the day, I think...
Shouldn't it be tea and scones?
