LOLLOLOLOLOL That is the worst map I have seen but it, and the blanked out maps shown in the US, really explains why people think Canada is all up north. The most populated part of Canada is in the section that sticks way down in-between the Great Lakes but it is always just blank so people think it is all water there. According to that map I actually live someplace around Kentucky. There are actually 20 States (11 full and 9 partial) north of where I live. There are 27 States north of the most southern part of Canada. If I could drive in a straight line it would be shorter trip to North Carolina than the 49th parallel that people think of as the border to Canada. The reason we get so much snow is that we are not on a coast with oceans to keep temperatures up so we get cold air from the north and nice moist air from the south and when they meet over the lakes they create snow. Lots and lots of snow. Most of our weather comes from Texas not Alaska.
