I've been in NS and NL for about 6 years now and I always get so excited about the way these storms get beefed up, but I'm always disappointed in the actual storms. I'm originally from Muskoka Ontario and when people here chuckle and ask "How are you liking our winters? Heh heh heh!" I tell them "I don't. They're lame and there's never any decent snow" lol
