That sucks we have had near 60 degree weather here Friday and Saturday. But tonight it's supposed to get in the low teens. Damn Midwestern weather.

The worst thing about southern winters is its not cold enough to snow but cold enough that you at least need a light jacket but the rain during the winter  months is fu**ing miserable.  Cold and wet are the worst.  Cold and snow is good.

The thermometer's bottomed out at -35C; can't tell how cold it really is. Moral: buy Canadian-made thermometers. ;D ;D ;D

14 f today, 8 now and will get colder as this week goes on ,well below zero for a couple nights single digit daytime.
  Every year it's so cold we spend half of it indoors. Only 3 more months of this. I gotta move outta this GD refrigerator, it just isn't right to waste half your life due to weather.
