The Casualties of Snow
There were trees with their tops/limbs sheared off all over the place today. These are some of them (there were many more):
And you know it's bad when the guys coming to clear the stuff get stuck in it!
But, never fear, the "snow" soldiers are here. Oh, maybe not. Just high school students, returning from lunch.

Poor trees.
I feel somewhat out of place, its bare and the temperature is warm here...what happened? We switched climates. I'll take it though if it means I don't have to put on a winter jacket yet.
Allison...I know, it's very strange. I saw on the news that Toronto was up to about 10 degree and it was sunny. Not fair!
Ben, the snow's so heavy on the branches (especially the ones that still have leaves on them) that they're just buckling under the weight. Some of them were huge and I'm glad noone was hurt.
Oh no! I hate when the trees get damaged like that! That's the problem with that wet snow - it looks lovely but it's so heavy.
Unfortunately we have lost a lot of trees here too. I know they say it's just mother nature's pruning but it's still so sad to see. Ross Bay Cemetary was closed down and wrapped in danger tape today because of the tree falling hazard.
Boy, it did a lot of damage here - I watched the news and trees were down all over.
Awww, that is sad. It's so beautiful, and then WHAMMO!
