weather

Well gee....I must not be much good for nothing...lol...I don't like it really cold, but I don't like it too hot either. How about mid 70's with a very light breeze and plenty of sunshine? That I can handle.

Sounds like perfection, Janet! A sweet ocean breeze wouldn't hurt either!

I have also gotten much more comfortable in the cold Linds. We are all so excited if it's in the high 20's, low 30's, and anything above 32 (Fahrenheit), is like summer! I would have to adjust a lot to your temps though!

What I don't like up here is that the sun doesn't shine in winter much. I have one of those lamps...maybe I'll use it. The good news is that it's already mid-January. Winter is over some time in April usually, with some sunny days earlier.

I am really confused about the weather all over the country. I listen to local TV, and it seems that it has been snowing all over the United States. I should listen better!

Spring will come, spring will come, spring will come

Winter here is usually over around the end of April. Last year we had two blizzards in April, but it warmed up a lot in May. Our May long weekend (around the 20th) is the unofficial "go to the lake and open your cabin for the season" weekend. Usually the ice isn't completely off the lakes until the end of May.

I was surprised when our Arizona people at work were asking how much sunlight we have in the winter because I didn't realize it was so different! In the winter it gets light around 9 am, and dark again by around 5 pm. I spend all my daylight hours at work It's dark when I come to work, dark when I leave work, and I have no windows! We don't have daylight savings in my province.

We are under a winter storm watch for tonight and tomorrow I think it is...plus the temps are suppose to drop to the single digits. Just checked again and it's a winter weather advisory starting tomorrow and ending on Friday. Just great....just in time for the weekend...okay...that's all I'm going to complain about it...lol.

We're finally breaking the -40 mark for a windchill of -41 tomorrow morning. I hate January! It's supposed to get above freezing on Sunday, and back down again after that. Oh yeah, -41 C = about -42 F

If it's going to be cold, I'd rather it just stay cold. When it warms up and starts to melt, it freezes again into ice

This morning it was -25 C (-13 F) and I was trying to pack the car while Scott was shovelling, but the doors were locked so I had to go find him. I am just wearing some knit leggings and it really didn't feel too cold out! I guess colder than -30 for a week really got me acclimatized lol!

Janet, at least if the winter weather happens on the weekend, you hopefully won't have to go anywhere!
