This is how a blizzard hit Canada. The snowstorm has obstructed the view and almost nothing can be seen.

This is how snow is being removed from the road. Although it only looks like a snowy field, it is a highway used as a major entrance to St. John's City.

If you look at the video of the fixed point observation early, you can see that the car is buried in the snow in a moment.

It doesn't seem to be safe if you put it in the garage. When you open the shutter of the garage, snow is piled up to the last minute of the ceiling, so it is not very possible to get out of the car.
Mildly claustrophobic this morning.Otherwise, slushie anyone? # Snowmaggedon2020 # nlblizzard2020 # blizzard2020 #nlwx #NLblizzard pic.twitter.com/8uoSQZGZG0

Opening the door to go to work, if there is such a snow wall, there is only despair.

You can see that the traffic is quite restricted, such as a snow tunnel.
You know the snow is deep when you can have a tunnel going to your front door. # Stormageddon2020 @MurphTWN @jwhittalTWN @cbcnl @VOCMNEWS #nlwx pic.twitter.com/6elD0IfeEY

St. John's is the oldest known city in North America and the Guinness World Record for being the foggyest city in the world, but this is the first time such snow has hit it. At St. John's International Airport , snowfall of 76.2 cm was observed in one day, and a 24-hour snowfall record was updated.

Due to the heavy snowfall, St. John's declared a state of emergency at 11 am on January 17. Business and commercial facilities in the city have been suspended, and all city roads have been closed to emergency vehicles. The Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador, Dwight Ball, has called on the Canadian government to send troops.
Fortunately, the damage was small, and St. John's fire chief Shelley Colford told the Associated Press interviewed, `` Considering the amount of snow falling and the strength of the wind, the damage to the city is minimal. I can say it was. ' However, in a town called Bay Roberts in Newfoundland and Labrador, there was information that a 26-year-old man who went from his home to his friend's house was missing, and a hard search by police was carried out. It is said that.
