Question How cold is it?

Just curious about what others are seeing this winter. I know the prairies have to be up there!

-36 degrees Celcius here today with the windchill

I knew the prairies would win

We went to winnipeg on a Hockey trip back in High school. You guys bring a new definition to the word "wind chill".

O f course some people would say because we have more mositure in the air it feels colder here. Then again Arizona is fond of saying "it's a dry heat so it's not as bad".

To which my response is "So's a convection oven"

I donīt envy you... 40C is a little too hot for my taste. Thatīs like 105F... some people pass out with those temps.

now try climbing around a refinery when it's 40C


it's not too bad, every enclosed building has AC and we had water out the ying-yang.

i have trouble with extreme heat but i only got sun-stroke once working last time. not counting the vicious sun-burn i got when i went snorkelling.

i can't wait to snorkel again. the red sea kicks ***!!
