The Maritime provinces are being hit with a Nor'easter plus a weather bomb again :!: 
Been snowing since about 3 or 4 am and we have winds in excess of 110kph or 70mph. These are supposed to be gusts, :? but they are basically sustained. :shock: I just watched the 15/40meter element on my Thunderbird go perfectly vertical. If it wasn't for the stiffeners that keep the ends of my boom horizontal, it would have done continuous 360's!
I guess we have about 7 or 8 inches down, but with the high winds, I have drifts in my driveway
what driveway :?: over 3 feet high. The adirondack deck chairs that I made, well, they blew off the deck :shock: about a half hour ago, and the birds are comical as can be as they fight to gain a little headway getting to the suet blocks 8)
Some areas such as the Halifax basin where Wade lives have well over 50cm of snow already, and I have a feeling that although it was only forecast for a total of 25cm in my area (we are well past that already), we may end up with more than the last big storm - possibly 60cm or more.
I guess that means I am going to get some more serious seat time :!:
Wish you all were here :!:
I really need to find a way to put up a weather station for my wife's computer - that way we can have some real time data and maybe some live cam coverage as well!!!!
