It has been instructive

petroniaTo hear people in various parts of the world complain about snow, this winter - my sense is that it has been quite snowy on a global, well, hemispheric basis. Instructive, because the amounts of snow involved are typically referred to in Montreal as "Monday morning." XD "One of those Monday mornings," at a stretch.
I mean, ppl complain about snow removal here! It's a whip-out-the-measuring-tape comparison sport between municipalities. But there aren't that many cities that keep trucking through six inches of snow a day, every day, for a week straight, 3-4 times in a bad winter, barely blinking at a mere 3-4 inch dump. Toronto doesn't do it, even. We kind of make fun of Toronto.
