SNOW

[Happytrails]

We've had a huge snowfall in EC Alberta today. It looks like an foot of not so fluffy white stuff since early this morning. Can't say I've seen anything like it my 70 or so years. In this part of the world we don't get a lot of moisture of any sort and what we get usually comes in sideways. There was some wind but not the blizzard type. Moisture is very welcome but the highways will be bad for a bit and our fall grazing has come to an abrupt halt.

1 st decent shot of the year here.

areas east of Hiway 11 must be dealing with a lot of snow now

We have had 6-7 inches here in Central Alberta. Last winter just about every snow we got melted. At present it doesn’t look that way for this winter. We are very dry so the snow is welcome.

I drove to SE Sask this week and seems most snow in Sask is in Saskatoon region. We have at least a foot here as of Sunday AM. All of it has been fairly heavy so must have some moisture in it.

We had lots to plow last week.
It was a mess in town .
Lots piled in the centre of the street.
This is why pickups are the top seller in the west. Cars and SUV's were stuck all over.
Might get another foot today.

Foot here so far and still coming down.

I am guessing same here...double all last winter already!

about 6 inches here in my area. Pretty fluffy stuff and wind from the east when it came , but thankfully not a 50 mph wind. A few days of above freezing would put a crust on it and it would stay in place but that's asking for too much in my country! Leaving some narrow check strips on my hayfields caught some snow for a change!

Big snow last week and another 10”-12” today puts us to 2’ so far, hopefully I can make the first pass around the yard with the dozer tomorrow morning.

Looks like about 10 degrees below normal for the next week.

Three yard plow outs already this year, this is going to be one long winter. Neighbour hoped to leave cows out till xmas, he is bringing them home today.More feed will be used than last few winters for sure.

The wild life will have a very hard winter. all the stubble is full and the snow in the bush is deep. foraging will be very difficult and running from predators difficult. staying warm in The cold will also burn up a lot of energy. i'll crack open a couple bins now and then hopefully it helps...prices shit anyways
