:) -15°C isn't too bad for us, except that the roads are really bad due to the blowing snow. Blowing snow moving across the makes for very icy conditions. I counted 6 accidents on the way to work this morning and several more cars in the ditch from earlier this morning.
OMG, thats insane! After living in sunny California for 25 years, I've started to complain about an unseasonable "cold" winter in Portland Oregon all the way down to 17 last night (our average for the winter is 50F).
Keep in mind, this is -15C, so about 5F. Bad, but not THAT bad. When I was younger I would go cross country skiing when it was colder....
(As a US citizen, I apologize to the Canadians and the rest of the world for our backwards refusal to adopt the metric system. Although, I actually like the Fahrenheit scale better for temperature because it is more granular without talking about fractions of a degree.)
@westies I have a question.... Why did England send the iffy population of England at the time to warm beautiful Australia and the so called upstanding Empire Loyalists to frigid Canada? Dude, can you ask the Queen for me? I really want to know... eyeroll
