Ususally in P.E.I., Canada, We have 2 feet of snow covering the ground in winter. Thats not counting the trillions of snow drifts. So come spring, all of the ditches next to the road are flooded, and snow floats on top of the water. I can still remember my mom telling me to stay out of the ditches, cause I would sink to the bottom and drown (this is when I was 5).

The past 6 years, we've gotten hardly any snow, but a lot more rain. So no more rivers in the ditches, but we get a very low water table because of that. And when I say low, I mean LOW.

For those of you who don't know, the water table is how much water is underground, used by wells. Most people on the island have to use wells. Fortunatly, we've been getting literally tonns of rain every summer. But if we don't this year, it's gonna be drought time.
