Snow Event – Feb 5
We’ve been out measuring in all of our zones and we’re seeing 4-4.5CM of snow down. While we’re still under the 5CM, we expect a couple more flurries throughout the day, so we will be starting our operators at 1PM and our shovel teams at 2PM. We do not expect the city graders to be out, […]

Twas the storm before Christmas
Despite all the forecasts originally predicting 5-7cm of snow, with the storm being very disorganized, we only received 2.8cm in all of our zones. Therefore, we did not service this small snowfall. We are keeping a close eye on incoming snow during the holidays. With that being said, we thought it was best to sum […]

We have seen a few flurries come down over the course of the morning and after taking measurements in our different zones, the accumulation on the ground averages between 3 – 4cm. As our contracts are triggered by a snow event of 5cm or greater, we will not be servicing today. Looking ahead, we are […]
