And they will get 3. I filled my rink up yesterday - the snow is going to be an issue for me - but looking at the 14 day - it'll be a pool again in about 7 days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong Farmer Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Weather network has already reduced snow fall amounts to 10 to 15 cm’s now for us in Kitchener area. Going to be all rain until Friday evening. Then snow kicks in for 10 to 15 cm’s they claim. We most likely get all rain here and a trace of snow and they call it a white Xmas 🤪. Big snow fall amounts will be in snow belt areas on Saturday after storm rolls thru and winds pick up. We don’t get that in my area normally.
