This interview with the first to travel the southern section of the Trans Labrador Highway gives a peek into the future. Road Closed Signs in stupid places, rough surfaces, some idiot workers then some very kind sensible workers.
One thing that people should remember, even if you are in a hurry this is a very long rough road through wilderness without emergency services.
These people were lucky that the weather did not dish up the worst; do not put your lives in the hands of the department of transportation and works, take your time and do your pre trip planning; it is not a run down to the local corner store for some chips and a coke.
Bit later on: Crikey, just came in from helping the global warming along by shoveling some snow and I am soaked.
Back in 06 there was a few warmer days mid December but no rain, this is an anomaly. Sensible people are ridding around on their ski doos in wet skins for Christ sake.
Bit more later on: The Christmas tree lighting is postponed till Sunday at 7 pm. Way things are going a water lilly lighting may be more appropriate.

lol-Yes, it must be the same "global Warming" that hit Copenhagen, and is putting the Carolinas and Virginias under a foot and a half of snow in Fall!
Yikes! that's big snow on the roof. Pretty though.
Siutik looks good with her red bow.
When we had a husky (Sheba) many years ago, we would always send her outside on Christmas morning and she came home with a red bow, never found out who she visited!
Looking at the long range forecasts at Accuweather, they think the north coast will dry out a bit, and be a bit warmer then normal until the 11th of January, when things should resemble normal again. We way down here will be colder and extremely soggy. We'll see I guess.
