UPDATE on today’s blizzard: at 4:30pm
Environment Canada has lifted the blizzard warning for Pangnirtung. For the time being the snow has stopped falling but …the wind is still howling and blowing snow around. This is what my one living room window looks like now!

But I decided to head outside to get some fresh air. Don’t worry I stayed uber close to the house, and could see across the road, and even to the houses on the other side of the river! I just wanted to get some fresh air…and take some photos of the snow on the houses!
After getting all my snow gear on…I grabbed my camera…threw all my body weight into my front door to get it open! (Yes, the wind was that strong against my door!) Here’s the house from across the street…the one I couldn’t see earlier in the day!

There’s quite an impressive snow drift directly in front of my door….

I then took a walk around the back of my house. Lots of the snow has blown off the tundra and mountain behind town…

Some of that snow has ‘stuck’ to the side of my house!

And there’s a crazy drift behind the house too!

The wind still hasn’t died down… I suppose I should start organizing all my papers so I can file them and dig out my tax stuff! Or I could just turn to Season 3 of Dontown Abbey…
