It was a windy one yesterday....

As the title says, holy shit was it ever windy yesterday. Out of nowhere, we had this crazy windstorm, causing windows to be ripped out of skyscrapers downtown...which in turn caused the entire downtown to be shut down. No public transit, no driving your own car. Police had certain streets all taped off, and were guiding everyone out on one road (which sucked, as it took me an hour and a half to get out). It was crazy. Apparently, down where my parents used to live, the wind was so strong it was causing grassfires too.

All of this makes me wonder...why is winter not here yet? I have enjoyed the nice weather (minus those damn arctic winds), but the fact that we only have a 1/4 inch of snow on the ground is really odd. Usually we have snow on the ground on Halloween...but not this year.Shit, I can even go outside in just a hoodie some days. Anywhere else been experiencing a weird winter?


And before I forget, here is "Cybornator" by Pixelord. I can never get enough of this one!

  9. Maybe it is snowing but the wind is so powerful it gets rid of it before you have a chance to get it.

  10. I suspect you are having those arctic winds because you live so near to the arctic. Do you really want more winter in Calgary? I wouldn't mind having your winter wonderland for a month or two though. Don't see too much of that here in Louisiana.

  12. Another beautiful, unseasonably warm day today in NC. The Indian summer we had down here in the States is turning into an Indian winter.
