    Snow cover?

    Was in Regina last week. Couldn’t believe how little snow there is down there. I haven’t been out much this winter. But here we are well covered. Less than normal, but there will be a decent runoff.

    Just curious what others are seeing.

    More than enough in the triangle from Thunder Bay to Kenora to Fargo. Winnipeg in big trouble if it melts too fast. After 22" of rain in Sept/Oct 2019, I am ready for a prolonged drought.

      Lots of snow cover here. In spite of being very warm, melting almost every day ever since the cold snap in early January, it just keeps accumulating. The boys and I went for a snowmobile ride around the farm, on the weekend, in places where it hasn't blown away, and is shaded, there was 3 feet of powder, makes for great riding, but poor spring harvest conditions. Apparently this most recent storm dumped a lot more east and north of here.

      edit to add. Here is far west central AB.

        Plenty of snow here east of Edmonton region but the center of the field is actually almost blown clear with large drifts along fences and in the yard proving once again that snow is pretty much useless from a crop production standpoint. Hoping for early spring and generally dry conditions so spring thrash can get underway soon.

          Plenty of cover here yet.


          I’m thankful we put new knobby drive tires on the feed truck most days like today. The pavement past my place has had ice continuously on it since mid November and is still a couple inches thick in spots yet.

          Any thoughts of field work are distant dreams in this neighbourhood.
