lol, we have not had that much snow, but we had a fair bit. Probably around 30 inches I would guess.Newfoundland is finding itself blanketed in layers of white as most of the country shivers in sub-zero conditions. Many people expect the province will set a new snowfall record this year.
The latest storm to whip Newfoundland dumped far more than even meteorologists anticipated. Some 45 centimetres of snow fell, which brings the total to more than 300 centimeters this winter.
Elsewhere, the cold snap that has gripped most of the country has placed some people living on the streets in a perilous position.
To cope with overflowing shelters, Edmonton decided to open a public transit station in an effort to keep people warm and safe.
For the third straight night, people who enter the makeshift shelter are being given blankets to warm from the minus 30 degree weather.
"I heard they had drinks and blankets, but I wanted them to have something to eat so I started making soup," one volunteer told Newsnet.
The city says it will consider keeping the station open as long as the frigid temperatures continue.
