Snow dump is still 59 feet (18 m) high

That’s five stories! – Includes video

Wiinnipeg’s Kenaston snow dump is still 18 metres (59 feet) high even though it’s a full week into August.

Jim Berezowsky, Winnipeg’s manager of streets maintenance, says it’s not unusual for snow at the dump sites to survive into August. But this year, he’s seeing more snow than usual. “It is significantly higher than in years past,” Berezowsky told CTV’s Canada AM on Friday. “We didn’t receive the extreme heat that we usually do.”
