November on the Prairies

The weather has been vile the past few days. Yesterday morning I drove to work in the heavy snowstorm, scraped frost off my windshield in the evening and drove home in the rain later that night.

Today was worse. Morning was fine-- snow was melting and the wind was ok. Then the wind picked up (Environment Canada had a wind warning out for us most of the day). Coming back from lunch I met horizontal sleet which had turned to snow by the time I went to pick up my parents for a movie. The doors of my car were frozen shut.

It's also very icy out there-- I may walk to work tomorrow (leaving early because the sidewalks are awful too).

I guess I should get the snow shovel out of the shed and buy more ice melt.
