So we just had a big melt down....in fact, we had NO snow left. Then last night our rain turned to snow and dropped 2 feet on us. Anybodu else get nailed by this storm?
 

Nailed no but 6-8". Hard to tell though since it rained so much on the snow-less frozen ground there is a lot of water under the snow.
 
Yeah, didn't make our planned ride in Camden this morning!

Got roughly 22" between yesterday/ last night with wicked wind all day.
It's deep out there in spots! ;)!

we have had a crappy year where i am, we still had snow but not what we are use too.

i remember going to bike week in 93 when we came back we had a boat load of snow,

when ya come backfrom tropic weather to blizzard conditions it is kind of awe inspiring
 
Same here, now here come the 40-50mm of rain. Wish it was 5 degrees colder, would have been one heck of a snow storm!
 
It was 40* & rainy when the avalanche sound was heard, everything that was on my metal roof came crashing down at 3:30 this a.m.
About 4' of solid snow pack now on top of where that wind blown stuff is up against my front windows.

Waiting to get home from work and find the same result for the garage.

Mother Nature giveth more riding time, Mother Nature taketh away 4 days later- a cruel woman! :die
 
got about 8-10 cm here, but its bascailly all gone now, hopefully the rain doesn't ruin the trails up north, left from Kinmount and rode 269 miles ,Whitney Barrys Bay, Combermere , Lake St.Peter and back to Kinmount on Wednesday it was best trails all year like glass.
 
Blizzard Warning Blizzard WarningIssued at 6:35 AM CST Friday 11 March 2011

Summary
Freezing rain possible this morning. Blizzard likely tonight.



Details
A pair of low pressure systems..One in Saskatchewan and one in Montana..Will bring a wide variety of weather to much of southern and Central Manitoba today through tonight. As of early this morning, radar indicates an intensifying area of precipitation moving from Eastern Montana into Southern Manitoba. With a warm front now over Southwest Manitoba pushing in warmer air aloft..Freezing rain is a distinct possibility for many areas of Southern Manitoba this morning. The possibility is greatest in the parklands area of Manitoba extending into the Interlake region..Where recent radar returns suggest a more prolonged period of freezing rain this morning. Note that even in the absence of freezing precipitation road conditions may be hazardous due to ice formation overnight. Temperatures are expected to climb just above the freezing mark over most areas this afternoon. However a cold front is forecast to move through Southern Manitoba this afternoon through this evening. General snowfall amounts of 5-10 cm can be expected as this system moves through the area..With up to 15 cm expected east of Lake Winnipeg. The main impact of this system is likely to be felt in the Red River Valley including the City of Winnipeg..Where northwest winds of 50 gusting 80 km/h are expected tonight. This in combination with the fresh snowfall should result in blizzard conditions..With near-zero visibility in snow and blowing snow..Over the Red River Valley including the City of Winnipeg beginning this evening and continuing for much of the night. Temperatures are expected to plummet tonight from a relatively balmy +1 late this afternoon to -18 by Saturday morning..With wind chill values dropping back to the minus thirties. Conditions are expected to improve by Saturday morning, although temperatures will remain well below normal


Typical Manitoba weather. High of +4, low of -30 with wind chill......
