So every time you guys are tempted to complain about the snow plowing in Ottawa... let me tell you how it works here. They have a "7 day snow clearing plan".
The first 48 hours after any snowfall are reserved for ONLY plowing the priority 1 routes, so basically the main arterials.
Days 3, 4, and 5 are for priority 2 routes... so any main street that feeds onto the priority 1 routes.
Days 6 and 7 are when they start doing residential streets. BUT residential streets don't get plowed. They get "cleared". Current requirement to mark a street as cleared is that the snow is packed down enough that the ruts are no more than 12cm high.
And if it snows again.... you start over at day 1.
A couple of winters ago when we got a lot of snow, my street didn't see a plow (or a compactor) from November until January.
where do you live? Moscow?
Seriously, you should see how confused people here get when you try to tell them this isn't normal.
so they basically cross their fingers for a chinook as the solution
yep. And when one does come through, and all that hard-packed snow starts to melt, and then freezes again.....

But I would be worried there were some extra snakes or other critters accidentally left behind.

That's a pretty awesome gesture. I assume they are hoping most won't be able to take them up on it, though....

How come they clear your streets out in the middle of no where and we're still waiting?
cuz we only have 3 long streets.

SensGab's trip back to Markham is not going so well. started over 7 hours ago, Uber ride to Train station cost $100, missed train, rebooked with a connection in Kingston and according to her last tweet is still in Kingston
Yikes, from what my friends have said, Kingston is not a good place to be stuck today. They had to take the buses off the road, and most taxis called it quits as well.
Imagin plowing through all that snow to get to this game?
it'll give Senior motivation to go shovel again
Did some more shoveling. Good news is I found the Nissan!
