You should come here then. One of my complaints about Calgary was they get big dumps of snow too often, which make all those hilly streets like a demolition derby.

Out of curiosity, have your winters changed over recent times?

We haven't had a real winter for years on the coast of NW England. This winter, 2 nights when we had a frost and a few days of cold winds and that's about it.

Here, it's about 280.

That's for those people using the Kelvin scale.

A friend of mine is leaving for Singapore in two days, lucky girl. She can't take this weather here any more.

Are there any countries that actually use the Kelvin scale? Most use the Celsius scale (except the U.S. which is stubborn).

It's O here on the Kelvin scale which, technically, means I shouldn't be able to write this as all motion has ceased at the atomic level.

Actually, the secret is to get under the snow. You can stay warm that way. I thought I'd give you that tip in the unlikely event that a glacier parks itself on Manhattan.

Coldest I've seen is around -60c IIRC.

It got out of the 20's here today for the first time in a week. We are in the process of building an addition to our house, and we are freezing our tails off inside the house. The contractor started working when it was warmer, got the siding and insulation off the north side of the house, and then had to stop due to cold weather. Last night it got down to about +5 F, with a -10 F wind chill. I washed some dishes before I went to bed, left them to dry (next to a window) and they were frozen together the next morning. We have a couple of space heaters running in the kitchen. If it warms up next week they can finish the outside framework, and get the siding back on. In the mean time, we can skate on the pond for the first time since 96.

I'm just glad that so far in our winter, eastern Iowa has not received any snow yet.

You guys can keep all the snow to yourselves if you have it where you're at.
