1°F

-13°F

And it's not even winter yet

I think Edmonton actually set the record over the weekend.

 

[Paxonator]

@fenix Yeah I love that picture haha

I believe Edmonton hit -58C the other day!!

 

[Kpalsm]

Yeah so I heard, that's ridiculous. BTW, I'm only a couple hours south of Edmonton

It got pretty cold here too

 

[TopPop]

The worst night I had was last winter. It got down to -36 F, and my room has no insulation. I had a space heater, was wearing a pair of regular socks, a pair of wool socks, thermal pants, two fleece pants, a tee-shirt, a thermal shirt, a sweatshirt, a fleece jacket, and a hat. I had two fleece blankets and a comforter.

And I still had trouble falling asleep because the air was so cold in the room that my throat was chilled!


EDIT: That's -36 F with windchill factored in. So maybe I'm just a pansy.

Jeebus! I'm having a hard time coping with -3 here on the west coast.

 

[Kpalsm]

It was around -40 here last night too and it didn't bother me, guess I'm too used to -50 or -60 for -40 to be a big deal anymore I was just in my PJ bottoms, t-shirt and a sweater

I'm very diligently working on my 14-page research paper due later today, and to keep focused, I've periodically been taking walks outside. It's a brisk 5 Fahrenheit out there. I was having trouble singing because my jaw was shivering!

 

[krmathis]

Currently -3°C, but it certainly is getting colder...

That "meteogram" is very cool, is that available in other areas/countries, such as where I live (or is there a local counterpart)?

EDIT: Navigated to "Red Deer" on the website, very neat website, albeit very slow to me, I assume because the server is in Norway. Can you translate this for me?

Dang Pop, if that doesn't remind me of the winter I spent at Great Lakes (77-78). The windchill off of Lake Michigan never got above -33 F daily for the entire month of January. The CO wouldn't let us Navy students wear foul weather gear, so as a Class Leader I spent the first 20 minutes of class each morning looking for signs of frostbite. All we could wear was our typical winter blue (black) uniform with a peacoat and "garbage-can lid" cover (hat). It was colder there than Alaska and Iceland, where I lived later in my Navy days. You can't get warm in that kind of cold.

Ya-Haa! I just got back to work and got to enjoy a beautiful night at -50 F on the slope.
