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.

[@jimchurch3481]

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!

Hi Teresa, Ironworker Rick from Washington here. Good video. I miss Kitimat thanks for the vid

[@Teresathetraveler]

rtodahl01 thanks

[@brianferris5728]

[@Teresathetraveler]

[@garygagnon9655]

OMG, part of my childhood was living in Kitimat, when they said we are getting 3 feet of snow over night......it`s all true, but as a kid l love it........thanks for the video.

[@violeman]

Than God we haven't seen much in Ontario this year!!! & Even better that we didn't get what you all did !!! Glad to see most of you all working together to get through the mess !!! Thanks 4 Sharing!!

[@s3tione]

I never would have thought I would come across a KZbinr who is at KMP. That is fucking awsome! The snow may have stopped, but the rain is coming, and this place is gonna be a giant slushie in a matter of days.

[@nightwalker4769]

It's been a lifelong dream of mine to see snow (I'm a native Floridian) and this looks like sooo much fun!!! I can't wait to move north c:

[@gerdienplomp357]

You are from kamloops! I love it there. My aunt lives there. I am from the Netherlands. Omg, I would have not be able to find my car back. This is the amound of snow like we had for the last 37 years all together lol

[@connieeveritt5704]

At least you guys had heat and power. In town we had none of that. A hot coffee was just a dream

[@NikoNeznanovich]

This is beautiful.Is there anyone who needs the help during the winter season?I'll do anything..Laundry,dish-washing,housecleaning ,grocery,snow plow ...Anything..Just let me stay there during the winter ....Its so so nice :)

[@TheDukanu]

Niko Neznanovich True that I love winter also ;) If you go take me too !

[@TheDukanu]

Damn... Never saw that much snow in my whole life

[@corinnasutherland8554]

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed that. I would love a snowstorm, we're getting it in rain down here on the "Wet Coast". Stay warm.

[@MarioUcomics]

You all are some friendly folks!

[@davechamberlain9588]

This is insane! Beautiful ... but insane.

[@ellenblanton3419]

Damm that is freaking snow I d hate that

[@DeckoModzReviewer]

I'm from kitimat and we went 2 days with on and off power outages. Things are getting better here.

[@raharland]

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.

[@3nvyghost610]

damn the buildings got a whole new hair style!

[@NemoandStitchthecats]

I freaking love snow so much

[@timothyjenkins4396]

I love eating fresh powder off the cars.

[@aheimdahl5201]

There are no words...... Holy crap O.O

[@damama55]

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

[@rupertbc]

In Haisla the first nations language, Kitamaat means 'People of the snow'

[@darrell190967]

now that's what I call a REAL winter

[@cockedcap]

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.

[@tudorarada46]

I just got snowed in too!

[@Annie.xx-xx]

Hey are you there again this year

[@israelg24]

meanwhile in israel, people are excited about a chance of snow mixed with rain on wednesday night in jerusalem lol... you may find it hard to believe but i'm really jealous of you guys :) hopefully next year i'll finish my immigration process and move to terrace bc!

[@slspg]

Why in terrace??

[@israelg24]

not too hot in the summer, not too cold in the winter, amazing landscape, quite place, a nearby ski resort, college, hospital.... come on, it's heaven on earth :)

[@slspg]

israel ganan I get your point but my advice is rent a car when you get to Vancouver and go for a road trip to visit BC.The whole province is beautiful.Do that before you choose a place already, meanwhile welcome to Canada

[@israelg24]

slspg thanks for the advice :)

[@ThePatchouliRose]

Holy Shit! That's some serious snow! I've never heard of the theory that the snow and ice could crush a windshield and I've lived in some serious snow country myself! Good Luck with your car... how's that coming along? Thanks for the vid, well done.

[@jennadollface]

thats is what you called snow amazing

[@sairaanwar786]

never seen this much snow....u people should watch japanese videos about snow shoveling.they r really experts. loved your place❤

[@pearls2044]

Where is kitimat?

[@ThunderBolt219]

Awesome :)

[@keira1247]

I remember the storm

[@deerdown8355]

When I was a kid, I use to shovel roofs in the evening for money.

[@TheTuareg]

Greetings from Russia again! Could you tell me where is that? Want to see it on Google maps. It would also be interesting to see how it looks like when the all snow has melted. Please walk the same route when the snow has gone.

[@Admiral_Jezza]

Ai Gi OH MY GOD, it says in the description that its in Kitmat, British Columbia, Canada

[@TheTuareg]

***** didn`t know it`s a geographic name. It`s just a weird unknown word for me. Thanks for opening my eyes to it!

[@johonanandrewgomes7593]

@@TheTuareg I'm pretty sure Kitimat means something like valley of snow in the native language.

[@LarJgrip]

I flew out on my turnaround the day the storm hit…one week turned into four. Kinda miss that place or rather the money.

[@soggyshores]

Time for another trip

going to go for a beer SOOOOO CANADIAN :D

[@User-sssss-543]

Have fun ~~ hahahaha..........

[@brucewayne2984]

I have no idea why people try to shovel snow with those stupid shovels. Aluminum grain shovels work the best! Great video

[@frankenz66]

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.

[@rupertbc]

Aluminum shovels will scratch the paint on the vehicles, ironic that is was at the Aluminum Smelter, where that camp was....

[@alexleonardi2]

You should do something though... Not to be mean! I love this video but letting others help you while you stand by isn't very nice

[@fahedali3768]

Alex Leonardi TBH she did say she'll pay them or get them alcohol so it's a trade they were willing to make.

Am i weird for feeling jealous that they get to enjoy all of that snow?

[@jasonprice5307]

Lol... A little yes.. . unless u like living without Power & Shoveling Snow then no lol

[@TheTuareg]

Well, welcome to my world! It is often like this in Russia.

[@reggie102000]

And I complained about the 1.5 fee we got here? I'm sorry... Please keep that crap there.... :-P

[@MSI2k]

How about you talk less and start digging your own car out? You're not even trying to dig your own car out. Just standing there blabbing away.

[@funtyes1970]

hey dumb ass if she shoves we wouldn't be seeing this video .. you know you cant fix stupid right

[@mybebe32]

let me know maybe I can come join you boom boom you

[@sethsutech7505]

HULK SMASH WHITE COLD SNOW!!

[@SonneCreations]

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.

[@lottsalasagna431]

Haha 😂 nice wipe out

[@linlaobei1]

That's horrible～

[@RagnarokLoW]

Kitimat, BC is much better then Kyrat!

[@TheTyupsi]

So gross hearing her chew gum

[@relcychoho]

people shovel their snow on top of other cars and trucks = cannot be helped

[@captwar]

Great Video. Thanks. Do me a favor. If you see Al Gore tell him we want our global warming back.
