Out on this coast, we are generally spoiled by pleasant winters. Okay, Vancouverites will eventually admit that it rains a lot. Generally, this just means that the grass stays green all winter.
This year, however, is proving a bit different. It will be around -7 C (19 F) tonight. We are due for a storm tomorrow and snow has been on the ground for a week! We know that this part of the province doesn't abut Arizona, but we're not used to this! Brrrr.
