This large snowpile was created after our parking lot was ploughed. There was a lot of snow there!
The neighbourhood children will have a lot of fun there on the weekend.
Happy Thursday.
It’s Snowpile Time

Snowy, Snowy!
Happy Wednesday.
Snow Roof
Here’s our roof edge showing the successive layers of snow, snow melt with icicles and then more snow.
It looks like a small nudge might easily bring down this ice-snow ridge, but it’s actually up there quite solidly.
Inside, my M is watching the Raptors basketball game and making a wonderful dinner. The Raptors won!
Happy Tuesday.
Summer Roses …
… are a nice contrast to what we have going on outside right now.
Happy Monday.

Happy Winter!
Snow Canopy
Our rise in temperature caused this snow canopy to develop. You can see where the door has shaved off some of the snow; whittled it down so to speak.
You might be wondering why we haven’t knocked it down. Actually, it’s attached up there rather solidly, and secondly, that’s a lot of snow. If we knock it down, we will have to shovel it off our steps, and since it has become warmer, the snow has become denser and heavier.
That’s probably more than you wanted to know about snow. 😉
Happy Tuesday.
Under the Snow Drop
Although it’s normal for this subarctic area to receive large snowfalls during November, the most recent one was particularly generous! 55 cm (about 22 inches) fell during a three-day period, filling driveways and road verges and obliterating vision to create a temporarily monochromatic world. Here are some snow covered views.
The snow finally stopped this afternoon and the sun made an appearance, but I understand that we will get more on Friday.
Happy Tuesday.
Snow, Anyone?
The lake effect snow is coming down in full abundance. It hasn’t stopped snowing – a very heavy, wet snow – for 48 hours now.
Happy Monday.
Snowfall Time
The November snow is off to a good start in NWT.
There will be heavy periods of it (sometimes for days at a time) until December when the temperature will drop enough to slow it down.
Happy Sunday.
Entering the Snowy North
Once we left High Level, Alberta, and headed due north, we encountered temperatures at 0° accompanied by a freezing rain/snow mix. It made driving interesting, to say the least.
Happy Wednesday from the snowy Northwest Territories.
