Just thought I'd let you all know how much I'm suffering today. 
Its -49oC right now with the windchill, which is -56oF.    I almost lost my toes this morning!

OK which is it F or C 
Your must be in Manitoba is it,? brain freeze can't remember.
Yes it's been cold here, -28 with the windchill.
Alas it's warming up, today it's +5, and the water is running everywhere.
We had 30 mils of rain over night.
I sure have had enough I tell ya.
The snow got some cutting with all the rain, so lets hope the worst is over.
Most these Americans can't imagine -40c
That's too cold for me.

I"m in Calgary, so luckily we're due for a Chinook from the mountains on Thrusday!  One more day of awful coldness!  Ick!  I grew up in Saskatchewan ,and the worst I ever was in was -65oC.  It's too much for me!

[Jessica]

Wow, that's really cold. I guess I can't complain but I hate winter and I hate the cold. It's only been in the 30's here in Pa.

I hate winter, probably because I grew up in a province (Saskatchewan) that doesn't get a break adn sits at -20oC for 6 months.  Alberta gets Chinooks, so it can get cold, like right now (ick), but usually is melty and warm.  Soooo much better than a deep freeze for half the year!

I hate it too, but could never bring myself to leave home.
Have friends & family in Ontario that say they have the best weather in Canada.
My brother in NS says it's pretty good there too.
I think BC has it the best though, ya think?
What ever would we complain about if not the weather.... like were do I start.

[nemue]

  so true.

Calgary is generally ok, except the week of extreme cold we get every year.  I agree though, BC would be better.  It's just as expensive here, so I don't know why we haven't moved yet?

Okay all of you stop complaining cause I AM IN WINNIPEG MANITOBA and there is no colder place on earth.....well except maybe Siberia or something.  Not only is it cold, but it's been cold since OCTOBER and we wont see the snow melt until the end of APRIL if we're lucky.  It's been -35 celcius with windchill for like 4 weeks and I can't handle it anymore.

I like coming in from the cold and saying to my chinnies "You guys are SO lucky you're not out there!"  For some reason it makes me feel a bit better.  And at this stage, I'll take anything that makes me feel better.

[nemue]

lol.  Maybe you should move to Calgary.  That's why I left Regina.  It has the second most extreme weather in the world (next to Siberia) with -60oC winters adn +35oC summers.  I miss the summers (it's always cold here with the wind from the mountains) but definitely not the winters.  so glad it was zero degrees yesterday.  I don't really understand why anyone would build a city somewhere like that in the first place.
