How much difference a day or two makes. Tonight it is 5 degrees c., (41 f.) and it is supposed to pour rain. Temperatures may go up to 10 or 15 degrees, they say, inland. That should cut down the snow banks!
However, this may cause flooding in areas, as snow filled ditches block the normal flow of water. Our basement is already showing some signs of infiltrating water...
I am not complaining. At least you don't have to shovel rain!
We were out driving today, and saw the Queen's Road heading to Montague, where plow drivers reportedly couldn't open it more than a cow-path. By the time we went through, it had been opened up to most of its width but very slushy, and snow blowers were busy clearing it, and by the time we came home, the road was by then mostly clear.
Below: a rather startling photo taken after the storm! Remember, before Wednesday, the snow was almost all gone!
