captain: The media certainly make it see far worse than it really is . Here in SW Ontario, I doubt if we have much more than 6" on the ground. Big problem here the snow we have is quite dry, been cold enough to keep it that way, thus the wind never stops moving it. One day we have north east, then north west and today it's south west.

Of course what turns those city dwelling media folks is all those structures thay have built to keep them safe out driving. On Sat. those concrete barriers that have replaced many mediums, were acting just like snow fences dumping snow right into traffic lanes. Media were on the air shouting at everyone to stay home unless it was an emergency. I drove from Toronto to London, 8:30 am to 11 am, just 2.5 hours. Normal time for a tractor trailer would be 2 hours on bare asphalt. Most of my lost time occured around those bariers, in last 20 miles to London.
