Weekend snow totals: a few comments.
1. The 150cm @CoCoRaHSCanada observation in CBRM is closer to citizen's reports (than the 86cm at YQY).
2. HRM (30cm west, 50+cm east) seems more representative than the 85cm at YHZ.
3. Pictou L observer had drifting on snowboard.
4. Thanks

At @NASA we have dedicated teams who watch the skies to make sure we are safe from hazardous asteroids.
Today's asteroid flyby is one of the closest ever recorded, but our #PlanetaryDefense experts have been tracking the asteroid and know it's not a threat to Earth.
