The problem is other drivers who don't heed this simple advice.

We got some a few weeks ago, and the whole city was just messed. My 90-min bus commute from home to school turned into a 2.5 hour adventure, on the days when the university was actually open.

Add power outages and wind to that and i wish i was back in the Kootenays.

Enjoy the snow Calgary, it kicks rain's ass.
It's not that much better here, in terms of people knowing how to drive in snow. Earlier in December, my typical 25 minute bus ride took an hour and a half, buses were running at least 15 minutes behind on all routes, my bus was consistently 40-50 minutes late...

We've managed to avoid the power outages, at least.
