I'm not surprised. You Northerners are a hardy bunch. I was absolutely shocked at what the Geordies would wear in winter.

We had a guy round here once who would wear just pants all the time whatever the weather. I think he used to get called thong man.

Pants here equal trousers. I hope he had a good body, otherwise :?

Ummmm, no, he was a little too skinny and a little too old. We can alway live in hope of 'Thong Man 2', maybe I should have a word with hubby. :think:

that little yellow flower is something...
nice.
then buried in snow along with her friends... drag

check this
yesterday it was sunny, gray, rain, snow, hail
today school is cancelled, kids are sled riding down the street
my feet are cold and there is about 4 inches of snow out there

it will be melted in a matter of hours
it is snowing right now... maybe it isn't melting anytime soon

my backyard is white
are the crab fishmen crabbing?
probably maybe if it isn't killer windy out there

ate on some free delivered crab the other day
even a dick neighbor is worth 15 cents some of the time
backyards?... i used to toss my empty whiskey bottles into his backyard and or his neighbor's backyard...it was great stuff

backyards are awesome

Given to...

We just got another inch or two of the dry fluff. Yours looks heavy and a pain to shovel.

Yes, it's really heavy. Great for making snowballs, snowmen and snow fort though. Not today though, the wind is up and it's pretty darn cold for Victoria.

Quite a change there 5th!! We are supposed to get a really cold system from Alaska this weekend

Fifthelement

I think it's the same weather system. It's running down the Western Coast.

It is still cold there! My daughter likes to look at the weather on her ipod(don't know why...) but she told me at breakfast that Victoria has the same little line in front of it that our weather always has (she is 7) I had to double check...I rarely gets below zero there. That is why I dream of living there. But it must be freezing there right now...but its way colder in Calgary, -32 with wind chill this AM!

Yeah, I guess we hit a new low with -16C last night :shock: At least it started melting today though. I was watching the weather report this morning, saw it was forecast for -45C in Saskatoon :shock: and in the -50s with the windchill today. The magenta patch indicating extremely cold weather stretched over all of Southern Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Brrrr . . . hope everyone is keeping warm.


Looks like California is getting some of the Arctic weather at the moment :?

Got some of your snow this morning---melted now though and partly bright blue skies!

I was gonna say....is this a thread from an island dweller looking for sympathy for bad weather???
Its frickin BRUTAL in AB today :( I thought the forecast was for near zero before it went in the tank again...so much for one nice day this weekend booooo super windy and cold...i'm about over winter, and i even got two weeks in the tropics this year... Bring on daylight savings time and the big thaw!
