Yeah. You see, to me, snow is still snow, and anything over two feet is unfathomable. When I lived in Texas, we got maybe a foot or so of snow during the winter, and that was a snowstorm to us. I've been an American Southwesterner my entire life. Never been up north at all, further than North Carolina.
Halifax gets that much snow? I thought island climates were more temperate, even that far up north. Winnipeg does look like it's in the part of the United States that gets hammered, but that's smack inland, so that makes a hell of a lot more sense. And wow, I thought you were on the east coast somewhere for some reason, not British Columbia. Isn't the west great? Granted, I've never been further north than San Francisco, but still.
I do envy the fact that anybody north of me can get away with wearing a trenchcoat more than half the year without dying. And clothes with sleeves. Blah. I dress like I belong in New York and I, for all practical purposes, live in Death Valley.
