This morning in Grande Prairie, Alberta it was -25 Celsius and snowing when I went to work and by the time I was done at 5:00 it was +2 and sunny. 

Doesn't the groundhog say if he doesn't see his shadow, there's only 6 weeks left of winter and if he does see it, winter will end in 6 more weeks?   :*))  :-\

Global warming won't kill the earth.  Mother earth will survive all but I pity the parasite on her back when she gives that big shake to rid herself of it.   ;)

I'll give you extra gas money to run that little runt over!  We just had I-80 closed through the area yesterday because of snow and 70 MPH winds.

Cold as all get-out here today.  7:30 PM and it is down to 36 - and windy.  Have been sleeping with a heating pad at my feet to keep them warm.  Thank God for thermals.

I just got back from a trip down to the the southern interior of BC and boy was it nice down there.  8* Celsius and the sun shining.  I was sitting on my truck waiting for the tire guy to fix 2 tires and was telling him to take his time 'cuz I get paid by the hour and I'm getting some sun on my noggin'!   8)

Suppose to be in the high 60's by the end of the week, with the possibility of another cold front around the first of March

Didn't get a sunburn did ya? Saturday and Sunday were both OK around here, Sunday it was nice enough to go ballooning. Good and cold, the balloon was up for about an hour total, and I flew for about 30 minutes. Which included my first "impromptu" lesson. I logged my first lesson Sunday....woohoo!!! It may take years and years, but I may eventually become a pilot when I grow up!

You're jealous as hell, I can feel it.


Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

Not so much...  :P

That's one of the reasons I like living in the MidWest... the change of seasons in dramatic, so you appreciate the other seasons more!

Same here, I used to live in Phoenix (and yes it does get cold) but we never really had the seasons.  I like being at the end of winter just so ready for summer and likewise in the summer waiting for winter.
