Here in Winnipeg it was -30 C this AM. Fortunately not much wind so it's actually fairly pleasant. Two hours away from here in Dauphin it was -42 : -61 with the wind chill! (brrr)

I feel your pain Sinc.
Today we have heavy falling snow but little wind. Kinda pretty actually ... until it has to be shoveled that is
Temps will drop to the mid -20s tonight. That's certainly better than the -40 we had the other day [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Macnoob, back on Boxing Day, 1970, I stood on Portage and Main waiting for the light to change. The person I was with at the time had to help me across the street when she realized that I was about to pass out due to the windchill.

It's a blah +2C day here in St.John's. This is typical, whereas the past 48 hours were VERY atypical. Still, I cannot imagine the extreme cold temps Sinc, Bolor, Macnoob, et al, are experiencing. Free whatever at the Cafe Chez Marc for you folks for the rest of the winter.

Does that apply to us west coast types as well. There are rumours (oh the horror) that it may snow here next week.

Was up before dark this morning (not hard to do at this time of year) and off to the gym with a light fleece top on. +3 on the way to +7. I hate having to tell you guys this, but the thread is called "Hows the weather?". Not my fault.

The weather here is the main reason why I have a frequent google search called "B.C. Real Estate For Sale".

The news reports from B.C. ("The Government Show", "Possibilities for Employment", and "Cost of Living") are the main reasons I'm still here.

What's the weather like in Halifax? Apparently it is very high on the list of "Places for Cheap Canadians to Live"... not far below Winnipeg.

Macnoob, I love Winnipeg, and it is one of my favorite Canadian cities next to Montreal.

Here is an interesting URL for Newfoundland and Labrador.

Traffic tomorrow is going to be nasty.

Traffic from Guelph to Scarborough was AWESOME!
hahahaha...

I drove like a man without a care in the world. It was fun seeing everyone driving so slow.. err.. carefully..

Only added an extra 15 mins to my drive.

Everyone.. please drive CAREFULLY.

And avoid a silver Taurus LX if you see it coming up to the left of you [img]smile.gif[/img]

P.S. When exactly are the snow clearing people suppose to clear the highway? It's sad how late they wait considering it's a 24 hour world.
