January 24-Blizzard-like conditions


On Sunday, Environment Canada said Regina was experiencing blizzard-like conditions and issued a blizzard warning. Looking outside my window today (see above) I'd say it IS a blizzard. White outs, drifting snow, biting wind ... that's a blizzard to most people here (especially the ones that bottomed out their vehicles driving down the street.)

The 10 cm of snow we received today, along with the 3 cm on Friday, has created metre high drifts in my yard and in my neighbours' yards.

If this isn't a blizzard, I sure hate to find out what the Weather Office considers an 'actual blizzard'.
