I recall swimming in a friend's garden pool in Calgary in
September with snow falling on us as we swam. Though the final
accumulation was not quite so deep as this.

We're in Banff at the moment. We arrived on Saturday with the temperature
in the 20s. Similarly on Sunday. Yesterday, Monday, the temperature
plummeted and on Tuesday we woke up to about 75mm of snow. More snow is
forecast for Wednesday and temperatures back in the 20s for the rest of
the week. It' s a good job we were partially prepared for cold weather!

Knowing that you're Scottish I was confused for a moment, until I
remembered that there was a Banff in Canada as well as in Scotland.

Likewise. Until I read about the snow. The Canadian one is, of
course, named after the Scottish one, but bears no other
resemblance to it whatsoever.

There's an idea. I might amble over to Banff this afternoon if
the weather stays fine.

No idea what the temperature is but -7C forecast for tonight.

Alan,

Hope you have power there. I see Enmax is saying it has 30,000 customers
without power. Not just UK suppliers who run into trouble when it snows.

Sounds wonderful!
Just boring dry and warm here in SW England.
