So it's usually this time of the year when everyone in Toronto stare longingly at the snow outside, while folks in Vancouver go walking about in shorts and t-shirts.

Well...

there's something like 30cm of snow falling in BC, and +17C temps coming to Toronto this week (+12 today).

It's the end of November and people are driving around with their tops down!

woot!

Isn't global warming great?! *shakes head in disapproval* :lol:
Yeah this past weekend was awesome. Saw a ton of people out Saturday and Sunday with just tshirts on.

Saw people still riding their motorcycles to work this morning, and even a couple cars with the tops down.

If its still nice when I get out of work, the car may even get a bath!

don't you mean shower? Or are you planning on driving it into the lake?
I put my xmas lights up in a t-shirt on Friday!

The planet is so skrewed.
Yeah, there's just a touch of snow on the ground out here. Looking at the tracks I made through the untouched parking lot at work this morning, about 8". That was in about a 24hr period. I know it's nothing compared to some of the snow that Ont etc gets but for here thats pretty substantial. A lot of people stuck, a lot of people grumpy.

Personally I love the stuff. Last week a few of us were talking about how depressing it was with 5 weeks of rain, I wasn't sleeping good, I know a few others weren't either. The snow came, totally changed the scenery, went out and played in it all day with my friends nephews and niece. Had a blast. Slept like a dog last night.

Are we the only two who realize this?! Or are the current Weather Network commercials on global warming not 'in your face' enough for everyone? :P

Well now that you mention it, the inside needs a good cleaning.

4 coffees in carrier on floor of passenger seat + jackass in a pickup who cuts you off = 1 big mess.
I got my winters on just in time.

All this snow sucks.

Late night parking lots! Look out!
Yeah I'm loving thus week off, I washed that car and took care of some other things related to it since it's been so great.
Yeah nice weather here in the GTA. Shame I came down with a viral infection and have been housebound since Saturday <_< (Hell I was barely awake for more than two hours total in Saturday :ph34r: )

At this rate I'll never shake this freaking virus :ph34r:
