It's -35C here with a wind chill of -47C. That's -31F and a wind chill of -52.6F for the "Fahrenheit challenged"!
(And "here" is Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada!)
They said our wind chill was -49C here yesterday
. I just went to look, right now it is -33C, about 26F below 0. Still a bit breezy so the wind chill will be significant. I'm up at Christopher Lake about 200km NNE of Saskatoon. 200km being about 120 miles for y'all.I didn't stray too far from the fire yesterday, today will be similar I think.

How far is that from Prince Albert? I have family there, and was just curious how cold it is for them.

I'm 40km, about 25 miles north of Prince Albert, I can be downtown in a half hour from my yard. They will be within a degree or so of what I see for temperature. In other words, it's plenty COLD there too. Supposed to be quite pleasant for Christmas Day though, about -10C and sunny.

It's been a few years, and I don't remember which direction my cousins farm is from PA. By any chance do you know the Swaby's? My cousin is Bev and her husband is Brian.

Don't know the name. I looked in the phone book and they have a PA phone number so they are closer to the city than I am.
I'll remember the name though, never know if I might come across them.
Meanwhile, it was become less cold, up to -29C about 20F below 0. At -29C I really can't say it has warmed

We're up to a balmy 32F with a light dusting of snow falling. Still well below our seasonal norm of 46F. We just finished a week of 12F lows and 28-30F highs. I guess we'll be back to mud soon. The frozen ground has made it nice for feeding the cows this last week. No mud on my boots when I get to work.

Well they got it right, and today was 70 degrees out. I started out in sweat pants and a jacket, but ended up the day in shorts and a t shirt.
You guys out working up North have my admiration. No way would I ever want to find out what it's like to live under those conditions!!!

I worked for a few weeks on a project in Laredo, over 100F every day I was there. I moved slowly from shade to shade. The building we were working in had a temporary AC hooked up to it, brought the inside temperature down to mid 80's, felt kind of brisk after being outside. I can dress for cold but, even on constructions sites there is a 'minimum' dress code
. Hot and humid is harder on me though, you can be soaked with sweat and it doesn't help because it doesn't evaporate. At least in Laredo it was a dry heat
. Just like here today, it is a dry cold. We say that as a joke because it is still real cold but a low RH does help.

28 degrees and snowing heavy.
3" on the ground with another 3" expected.
Rear blade attached.
I love living in New England where there are 4 distinct seasons. This time of year I love a night with a temp of 0 with no wind and a million stars shineing.
Tonight, it's snowing.;

Funny thing too is the penguin walk, you have it mastered after the first snow fall. So wrapped up and walking like a penguin is the order of the day!!!!!

Here's tonight's weather from Whidbey Island, 3"-5" predicted by tomorrow morning. The good thing is it will be near 50ｰ by Wednesday.
Eddie, I was 24 years old when I left Texas and there is no way I could move back to 100ｰ+ summers. There year I joined the Navy it was 45 straight days of 102ｰ+ days. Sort of like my 3 years in the Sahara Desert.

I know that some of you won't believe me, but I'll take August over January all year long!!! Once or twice a year, the heat will get to me, but that's very rare. I've found that the trick to dealing with the heat is to be outdoors in the morning when it's still nice out, and to never go indoors, or cool off. While it's hot, and I sweat constantly, it's not anything that I struggle to deal with. I've been known to drink gallons of water in a day, and enjoy every drop of it.
In winter, I struggle to get going. I'm building a gazebo/wedding pavilion right now, and just standing on the grass around it hurts. I wear wool socks in my boots, but it's not much help while standing still, working a piece of wood. All those clothes bother me, and slow me down. I like shorts and a T-shirt. I can move freely this way.
And wost of all, cold is just painful to me, while heat is comforting.
I'm just glad that there's people out there like some of you guys who like the cold. It sure would be crowded here in Texas if everyone was like me!!! hahaha
