I think it was -29c, windchill ??, the wife was telling me, as I was packing my lunch to head out to work. I wasn't really listening (again), but I do remember something about beating a 97 year record. That's all I needed to hear!
Beautifull morning here, low of only -9c. Reports state that this winter has been one of the best in years for trail riding, lots of snow, the trails are groomed real nice, a number of groups heading out on trips all the way up to mooseonee and back, also over into northern Quebec.
Snomobile dealers shops are very busy.
The weather last month Polar Vortexed my wallet in Hydro to the tune of $440!!! Almost twice the norm. Look like we are starting towards some higher average daily temps.
I would much sooner have snow than live with the months of cold dreary West Coast rain. I have no problem spending an entire day outside in the winter. You can dress for the cold and stay warm and dry. You can't do diddly outside when it's pouring rain out.

We missed out on the predicted snowfall overnight, only got 2 inches.
Low of -21c, this morning, then high today got to -15c, but windy with a chill factor of -28c-30c, it has a bit of a bite to it, but beautifull and sunny.
Another clear beautifull sunny morning, low of -32c with a -41c chill factor.
North of here all the school buses are cancelled due to the temps, low there of -41c with a chill factor of -50c.
Nice and cosy with the dry maple in the stove putting along, definetly a block heater morning for most.
Forgot to mention that a friend who is in the construction business told me yesterday, that a hole is digging with the excavator, he still had frost right down to 6 1/2ft.
This is an area that has been cleared of snow and driven over,-- in undisturbed ground with full snow cover there wouldn't be much more that a foot at most.
Gotta be a number of frozen water lines, have heard of 3 commercial buildings with frozen lines.
Low here this morning of -12c, but high today was up to +5c, and sunny for awhile,now tonight the temp is dropping to -20c with a -30c chill factor.
Only got an inch of new snow overnight.
Chilly temps most of this week comming up.
Snow removal is not my department Gazoo. I will do a light shovel of the steps when needed. I don't empty the garbage either.....but I will push the garbage down in the can further so more stuff will fit in. I'm not completely useless!
I think I just seen miss quito flying around with a artic survival suit with a puzzled look on her.then again it may have been mr quito looking for his breeding parts
Heard on the news this morning talking about all the towns cities with frozen water lines, The city of Timmins, the frost line there is down,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,9FT!!!

Yup thats why we moved out here, 4 seasons with bright sun in all of them! And people said we were the odds ones moving east. I'm starting to loose the webbing from between my fingers and toes
