More Snow Coming?

Welcome to the most snow on record for Toronto. Such a tragedy. ;)

But it's only coming tomorrow afternoon, so work should be okay, just getting home tomorrow evening will be trouble. And I suspect we should postpone Circus, though we might as well wait until tomorrow and see how the storm blows.

In other news ... level 14 captain. Tylythr is getting there, oh so slowly. The title of Master Apprentice Forester makes me laugh. I think my next up would be Journeyman Forester... and I finally got my first medium hides so I can start working on that. Only 2 of them though, so I guess I'm going to have to go kill more bears. :) 

Last night's rp was a bust as nobody showed up. Well, no, that' s not quite true. But no novices showed up, or folks who weren't already in on things. Hrmph. That's fine. We'll continue moving forward with the plot and the rest of the world will miss the opportunity to be in the know. Their loss. Instead, I got to level 14. Whee. That game is really quite pretty - and I'm learning slowly how to function there. And I think I got a new Captain healing thing at level 14, which is trained, so now I have to learn how to use it. I need to do a keyboard map document so I have it written down what all my keys do... cause I need to get faster at using them, but I never remember what key does what and by the time I look it up - too late. 

In other news - I'm going to try rp again tonight. :)

Oh happy day?

..ANOTHER WINTER WALLOP THREATENS SPRING FORWARD WEEKEND.. THIS IS AN ALERT TO THE POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF DANGEROUS WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS IN THESE REGIONS. MONITOR WEATHER CONDITIONS..LISTEN FOR UPDATED STATEMENTS.

A WINTER STORM IS CURRENTLY BREWING OVER TEXAS WITH THE POTENTIAL TO BRING SIGNIFICANT SNOW TO MOST OF SOUTHERN ONTARIO. IT APPEARS THAT THE SNOW WILL COME IN TWO DOSES. THE FIRST SHOT WILL BEGIN AS EARLY AS FRIDAY AFTERNOON FOR SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO AND FRIDAY EVENING IN EASTERN ONTARIO. WE MAY HAVE A BRIEF REPRIEVE OVERNIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING WHERE SNOW MAY BECOME LIGHT AND MORE INTERMITTENT. THE HEAVIEST SNOWFALL IS THEN EXPECTED IN THE SECOND SHOT BEGINNING LATER SATURDAY. KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS STORM IS EXPECTED TO LAST FOR 36 TO 48 HOURS. STORM TOTALS MAY BE NEAR 30 CENTIMETRES ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM LONG POINT TO THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE THEN TO PETAWAWA. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR 30 TO 50 CENTIMETRES OF SNOW OVER THE NIAGARA PENINSULA AND PARTS OF EASTERN ONTARIO. AREAS WEST OF THE LONG POINT TO PETAWAWA LINE SHOULD SEE BETWEEN 10 TO 20 CENTIMETRES WITH LESSER AMOUNTS NEAR LAKE HURON AND GEORGIAN BAY. BEHIND THIS SYSTEM WE COULD SEE STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS TO 60 KM/H. ON SATURDAY STRONG WINDS COMBINED WITH FRESH SNOW WILL CAUSE BLOWING SNOW TO LOWER VISIBILITIES AND CREATE DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. WHITEOUT CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE SO TRAVELLERS SHOULD BE PREPARED TO ALTER THEIR PLANS ACCORDINGLY. TOTAL SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL DEPEND ON THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM. THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS TO THE EXACT TRACK OF THIS STORM. ENVIRONMENT CANADA WILL CLOSELY MONITOR THIS SITUATION AND ISSUE WARNINGS AS REQUIRED WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
