Weather change

Here's the golf course I mentioned that was flooded

This is about 30km west of me. That river is normally a 100 ft wide channel along the trees on the left. There's a few houses along the highway. This is a portion of highway 11/17 which is the only paved highway connection between east and west Canada. As you can see, water is over the road which is at risk of washing out. This is BAD! We're fine at home but our camp is 40 miles the other side of this.

A drone video of the flooding at nearby old fort William. A historical park dedicated to the beginnings of the fur trade in northwestern Ontario.

 
Still light snow falling I just finished (kinda) plowing. I had most of the yard done when the transfer case on the old plow truck started squealing like a cat with it's tail caught in the door. It still shifts and runs but plowing snow in 2wd in wet snow ontop of ice is impossible. For the time being, I am searching for a set of chains to throw on the tires.
 
here in Zone 5, our usual killing frost is mid-Oct. it was only last night that sub-freeze temps were predicted or happened.
not the norm - nor unusual. Greta is so disappointed. . .
 
We had a winter storm come through yesterday dropping 6-8" where we live. I plowed snow for an hour last night then finished off this morning before the winds picked up. Temperatures were at the freezing point yesterday while it snowed causing the snow to melt slightly. Then overnight the wind picked up dropping us to -5 Celsius with a windchill of-20

That made the snow we got stiffen up and very difficult to plow.

Anyone else's body act like a barometer? Only a week ago it was 24celcius average. Now, it's only 4celcius. I can sure feel it in my bones. Been so sore I can barely move. Hate the extreme temperature changes. Almost freezing at night and above 20 during the day.

I get headaches with the pressure changes.
