The winter storm finished, and so has its place in all the news feeds. This file is no longer being updated is the news now. The last update from the Toronto Star was 7:00pm with TTC Streecar delays after tracks were blocked with vehicles. Which one? Of course - the 504 King - it had no service near Roncesvalles at Queen Street West. Even the TTC stopped subway service along the subway lines yesterday. CTV has an update or two today - there's still no subway service between Bloor-Yonge and Eglinton stations.
With the storm in Niagara concluding yesterday, the weather news has turned to Niagara Falls with them assuring visitors that the streets will be plowed. However, just popped up for Niagara Falls is a forecast of more flurries later today. And as I look outside with the sun shinning, there is snow in the sky. Looking at the radar, these are the "streamers" - lake-effect snow in narrow bands coming off of Lake Huron. It is very pretty to look at. Millie is a bit confused with the snow in the back yard being higher than she is.
To keep us entertained, there's a story of a "Cake Bandit" - an opossum in Nebraska that has eaten an entire Costco cake and had to be hospitalized. I guess the owner had put it outside on the back porch. The opossum helped herself - I would assume the problem was that it was chocolate and being from Costco, was probably the size of a small children's swimming pool.
There are lots of Reddit entries on what are the dimensions of Costco's bar cakes and how much does a Costco chocolate mousse cake weigh - one answer claimed it was almost 5 pounds. That's probably the size of the opossum. You can find out every massive Costco dessert, ranked by size. That's at the Eat This, Not That site HERE. You can even take a look at the Chocolate Mousse cake. Enjoy.
