Gotta love Canada =D
No, the 5 is the digit that's uncertain. And the two inches of snow is only because winter's just beginning. Snow can be funny here. Some years we hardly get any, some years it does nothing but snow. It is really cold here, though. Just as cold as many parts of Canada, I'd warrant. After all, you're not that far north of us!

I conassign people who try to do things you really should be involved in behind your back in order to cheat you out of things that should be yours. Especially when they're members of your own family.
