Regina Close To Record Snowfall - Photos

According to several reports, the city of Regina is getting close to a record amount of snowfall for the winter year 2012-2013. Its tough to measure exactly how much snow has fallen so there seems to be some conflicting numbers out there. One thing for sure is, there is a lot of snow this year. Here are some photos from around Wascana Lake and the Saskatchewan Legislature:

Highlights of 2012 - Thunderstorms Tornadoes and Bunny Rabbits

Short clips of each event starting with melting snow in January to spring snowstorms, sunny ski-dooing, happy bunny rabbits, wild summer storms, tornadoes and random bird attacks. Ending with the Great Horned Owl and wall climbing at the Saskatchewan Science Centre. A year packed with adventure!

With appearances by storm chasers, Gunjan Shadow Hunter, @djhardwired Notanee Bourassa and other members of team Canadian Prairie Storms!
