This Ain't Snow

 That's what my son and daughter-in-law said about what we are experiencing today.

They came in last night from Sault Ste-Marie, Michigan (about 1-1/2 miles from Sault Ste-Marie, Ontario, Canada).

By the end of January they had 136.5 inches for the winter so far, and just before they left "The Soo" the number had gone well over 159.8.

According to them, schools were only closed one day because of freezing rain.  Snow does not stop the kids from getting an education.

When they left there they still had over 3 feet of snow piled in their yard.  The picture below is of a snowbank near their house.  Look at how high the snow is up the pole for the yield sign.
