St. John's Snow

Added: Feb 21, 2007

Duration: 4:59

I took this video from the dash of the car. It's a short trip around a few streets in the downtown/central area of St. John's. We got over 40cm of snow on Feb 19/20, and some of the city's streets never saw a snowplow until late into the evening. Those that did see a plow were often down to a single lane of traffic. Drifting also caused some problems. So here it is... a drive through (and almost getting stuck) in St. John's. (It's never good when the snow is too deep for the ground clearance of your vehicle)

Oct 21, 2007 - Probably no snow in November... or at least not much of it. We get most of our snow from December/January until... I'll say April.

bobobeanie Says:

Oct 23, 2007 - Ahh ok, thanks Chuck. :)

Dec 17, 2007 - The snow is the white stuff piled up on the side of the roads. Look at it in comparison to the houses...that should give you an idea.

blurrybigfoot74 Says:

Dec 17, 2007 - I know how high the snow gets, I live on those streets. I'm thinking that a summer drive would give people an idea of how much snow is actually here, too late now though, snow is down already.

neilmassey Says:

Dec 17, 2007 - I know...and we are gonna be stuck with the white stuff for awhile..
