Winter.... I loath it. No Maraudering untill May, no wrench twisting on anything else I own untill at least April.

Not to whine.... I'll post a little article about the weather we've been having. Before you get to the article, I'll convert the temperatures from Celcius to Fahrenheit: -46C = -50.8F; -59C = -74.2F

Oh for a green card......

Wow. I'm in Minnesota - I've been outside in -20's F (ambient) several times in my life and that is plenty cold. I can't imagine another 30 degrees colder than that.

Suck it up princess! You're Canadian, which means you are allowed to ***** about the weather, but if it stops you from doing anything outside you should hang your head in shame. ;)

Bet you can't wait for Global Warming to start. ;)

Minus 50*F :eek: That would freeze the Snowballs off of Frosty the Snowman.

Damn straight Maury. I grew up with a backyard rink, but is was more of a frozen swamp. ;) It's why we are so good at winter sports. You have to be, or you spent 9 months a year indoors. You take up skating, or skiing, or sledding because you just go stir crazy. But I do have to admit, -46 is hard to do much outside. It's even hard to breath. But the quiet is unmatched!

This year, I'm marshalling the ice races. :banana2: That'll be a hoot!
