This right here? This moment?

This is me having no sympathy for you.

I'm in Saskatoon baby, where it snows 10 inches every night and snow one gives a snuck.

Agreed. I live in Winnipeg. The snow here? It eats people. I don't mean it covers them gently in a frosty white blankey. I mean it literally fucking eats people. Last time it snowed? They were like, "We should send out a search party for all the people that might be dead because the snow ate them."
Then some other guy was like, "Well fuck that, the search party will get eaten!"
No one has ever been found.

For all saying "quit your bitching," let me be clear we regularly get 8-10 inches of snow in a sitting. This was 15+ inches of a heavy powder, which does not compact, but loves to drift, as the first major snow of the year (we had a bit for Thanksgiving which didn't stay on the roads). As such, the roads were not salted, the plows had to scramble, and since the highways come first, the city was left accumulating it. Most cars do not have 15 inches of road clearance. For the metric population, that's a whopping 38 centimeters of white stuff on the roads. While the plows were out on the highway. So yeah, very few people were out on the roads.

Also, we usually get a bit of melting to help ease things up, but it's been consistently 15F or lower and shows no signs of warming up until Thursday... when we're looking at a 33% chance of more snow. For reference, salt generally only works down to about 20F.
