The weather forecast did say there would be snow, as much as 10 inches. I did not really believe that, but on Saturday morning as I drove to Spring Grove for the start of the TFP 2011 Conference, it began to snow. And it continued to fall throughout the day. At first it waswet snow but eventually it began to accumulate until we had a sizeable depth of snow.
I was concerned about the journey back to my hotel at York, since it would be 9pm, dark and possibly icy.
But about 8pm, it stopped snowing. I got out to the car and brushed off the snow from the windshield. I had difficulty getting the car over the snow piled up in front of my car, but eventually I got out.
\the driveway had been ploughed and de iced, and when I got to the main road, it was clear, and no ice. I noticed the pavements were being cleared too, and the shoppling malll parks were clear as well. I passed 2 snow ploughs on the highway who were now clearing the snow from the edge of the road onto the hard shoulder. Impressive.
Back home, this amount of snow would have brought us to a standstill.
