Thanks for your note Dave!
Yes - we have had a good dump of snow already - fortunately it is melting with the warmer weather but it won't be long before the snow settles in and accumulates.
The Farmer's Almanac is predicting a very cold winter this year - we usually see lows in the -30 to -35C range but expect we will likely see -40C / -40F this year.
Don't feel too bad for us though - two very good things about Calgary are the chinooks and the significant amount of sunshine we get
