It was -1° F this morning, and my dog wanted to stay out and play in the snow... I could feel my eyeballs freezing.
My whole life
was like a picture
of a sunny day

    It got down to 14 degrees here in atlanta last night. Which is not extremely cold by some standards, but in atlanta thats chilly. It did not climb above freezing yesterday which again around these parts those kind of days are few and far between.

    Yeah, but you're in Canada... Do you people even wear coats in this kind of weather? :)


    I just looked at Accuweather for this morning, and their real feel at 7AM when I was outside was -16°F (and -25°F at 5AM - Glad I was still under the covers).

    Yep!
    Halifax didn't get much but apparently everywhere else is no longer on the map.
    165cms so far for Moncton (not in just the one storm though, but the last two this week added 40-50 cms I think).

    Obviously I am very Canadian as I just checked and it says the temp in Calgary is -8 and I thought it seemed mild :eek: :o Supposed to be up to 3 this afternoon though!!

    Charlottetown got slammed over two days I think. They even had thunder/lightning with the snow :confused:

    My poor family still hasn't made it back to PEI. :( My mum will never fly again

    maybe we'll get another week of cold sometime soon!! it's crazy to me that it was in the 80s just last week...i'm sure i'll be sick soon from all of the crazy changes in weather.
    yes...i do feel like a human. i do not feel like a tree.

    Hehehe, yeah there were tons of airport delays and stuff this holiday season.
    My brother is supposed to fly out of Halifax Saturday morning, hopefully it's all cleared up by then. edit - Halifax is pretty clean, but there's a backlog of delays at other airports slowing everything else down..

    that IS the most bizarre feeling! :o hahahahaha. seriously, every year we used to go up to vermont skiing, and i never knew your eyeblls could feel cold. :p



    it most definitely has gotten colder here.....was about 15 degrees F this AM when i left for work. however, thus far i think we've been damn lucky, pretty mild november/december.....hell, it was still hot some days in october! yikes! so yes, in january/february i fully expect some bitterly cold days. c'est la vie. i rather be cold with a brisk walk then melting into the pavement during the dog days of summer in NYC....so it's all good. i love my 4 seasons. :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow
