its 2F right now here and getting colder..... I like winter....except for the bitingly cold part, I enjoy the "hey its cold enough for snow" cold but not the "cold enough that you stick your arm out the window and it breaks like when Sty Stallone kicks off Wesley Snipes head in Demolition Man" cold. Like it is now.

May I suggest a Delta screamer fan hooked up to some ducting so you guys can make use of that Michigan weather without losing appendages to frostbite (the Vaseline won't help you ) while you sleep?

I could get it colder, but I doubt I have the materials/ghetto rig skills to make that happen.

I'm dreaming of 45 degrees right now. I just hope it gets that warm by the opening day of the baseball season in April.

-2 is nothing, we had -35 last week, it was 55 above today though. That is a drastic change in less than a week.

It was 18*C here last Saturday, a new record high for January 15. Shorts and a T-Shirt in JANUARY. Absurd up here

Yesterday's balmy high out here in the 'burbs of Toronto? -28*C (-19*F). Add the windchill and you have -40*C (-40*F) and an Extreme Cold Weather Alert. Nothing like exposed flesh freezing in under 2 minutes.

That's one hell of a difference in a week's time.

Tonight she's going down to -25*C (-13*F). Yay, time to go plug in the car.
