Kitimat 2015 Snow Storm at KMP

Teresa the traveler faces the dilemma of how to get the 4 feet of snow off her car during the Feb 2015 snow storm in Kitimat BC. Thankfully some fellow KMP employees give her a hand and saved her car from potentially getting crushed by snow.

    I remember the very same thing Feb. 12, 1999 when it snowed like this for 2 days. I ended up clearing over 5 feet of snow during that time. Certainly glad Kitimat has some of the best snow-clearing equipment in the world!

    I used to live in Kitimat when this would happen every year, sometimes 2 or 3 times in the same winter. I made a sideline business out of removing rooftop snow with my chimney sweeping business. the last decade they have been spoiled. I still love Kitimat, just not the snow.

    Almost all of that snow was gone before I got to KMP. I heard the stories, this is the first video I've seen of it. Winter of 2015 was a bit of snow but mostly wet. I know, rain in Kitimat, whoda thunk it? I don't miss Kitimat one bit, though I was rather fond of the wages.

    We used to live in Kitimat, back in '82, and the snow that year was as bad, if not worse, that year. The companies paid the guys their regular wages to clean off the trailers. Welders, pipefitters, electricians, etc. all had to shovel. The snow was up to the eaves of houses and the shopping center on Nalabila was behind a huge snow bank. Kitimat does mean "Valley of The Snows", I do believe. Thanks for sharing your video. Great work by the guys, too, for shoveling out your car. Did they get their beer?? LOL

    For wet snow grain scoops work great and is the best tool for such texture of snow. For really dry snow the types they are using are best, because you will be scooping and pushing a lot more often and those grain scoops overwork your back and probably heart.

    That was nothing. You should lived there in the 50’s, 60’s and early 70’s. One story houses had tunnels leading to the front door. 20ft high snowbanks from the snowblowers. The weight of the snow is not going to crush the windshield. A little dramatic.
