We watched the Calgary flooding on TV, what a huge disaster, that is what the officials in Tekapo are thinking about, and plan to maybe truck all the snow out from the township area, 1 to 2 metres high, so a massive amount.Hope your niece is safe on the roads, does she have a 4WD? Your weather looks so warm when I check my favourite places on "wunderground".

In some areas, the heaviest snowfall in decades, 3 feet to over 6 feet,causing huge problems for farmers, families, and road transport. Where we live, some 1600km (1000 miles) including a 3 hour ferry crossing , north from the farm, it is 3 Celsius this morning, rain and no wind. Yes, those boots, pure luxury, but maybe in this snow, necessity.

Snow would be welcome here right now in Montreal (well, for myself, anyway, LOL!) but alas, we are due for a dangerously humid heat wave, beginning tomorrow.
