To date, this still feels like the worst winter I’ve ever experienced in the city of Halifax. Some of you may have even noticed the Twitter hashtag #stupidwinter started up about three weeks ago. Go ahead and add to the grumbling. It might not make you feel any better but at least you’ll know that there are others out there equally as frustrated by this deep freeze and maelstrom of precipitation.
Well, apparently Mother Nature in now in cahoots with the folks at Environment Canada in her move to strike fear into our hearts. Look at this picture and tell me: does that or does that not look like periods of falling ice daggers?
I don’t even know what to say about that. Just, for the love of all that is dear to you, please don’t go outside if you see ice daggers descending from the sky.
My thoughts are with all of you during this time of the impending ice apocolypse.

#stupidwinter!
i prefer the weather network’s depiction … their freezing rain just looks like triangles. still threatening, but without the chicken little quality of the ice daggers!

Michelle: I had to check out the Weather Network’s image and you’re so right. It actually looks more like something I’d expect to see in an old school Nintendo game. Do you think we get 1UPs for dodging a certain number of those blue triangles falling out of the poofy cloud?
