This is the view I woke up to today:
[image loading]


For reference, it is October 4th, and snowing like a mother fucker. What the fuck, nature?

To be clear, I like snow. I like winter. But enough is enough. Last year it was "cold" (consistantly below zero) from November 1st to mid May. One of those months was -40 consistantly. That's too much. I can't take it.

Calgary is pretty far north - it's the farthest north I've ever lived. As a result, this means the winter sun rises around 9 AM and sets around 4 PM, at best. This means for these three to six brutal, unforgiving winter months, I don't see the sun for the five days of the week I am working.

It's so depressing to think we're already back at winter again already. I am so happy that I'm leaving for Korea in a week and can put off the slide into winter at least two more months.

Dude I would love that. Over here it's like living in a sauna because for over half the year the humidity is in the 90% range. I love cold weather and snow in October (or anytime during the year for that matter) is pretty rare here.

edit: Yeah the sun schedule must really suck though. 9-4? Wow that's harsh man

The snow and the cold I could probably deal with, but no sun, for the most part, would be so depressing.
if I come without a thing, then I come with all I need @tonightsend

Any knowledge of the history of Calgary? Why would a big city like that spring up where it is. Is there some sort of resource nearby? Some business/industry in the city? I'm just curious as to why people would choose to live there.
You are crushing me like a cheese sandwich

Im in Edmonton (3hrs north of calgary), and no snow yet! However it's pretty chilly out, which sucks for a guy like me who works outside usually for 12hrs a day. Last winter was just brutal with the constant minus 40. I thought I wasn't gonna make it a few times lol (I work 10days in a row out of town, and have 4 days off).

Lets pray this winter will be a little more gentle
