Winter Just Turned Nasty!


For days, all the weather reports on the news have been about a cold air mass on its way from the Arctic. Spot on lunchtime today the snow started coming down & the wind came with it. The temperature has dropped 8deg in no time & is predicted to go under -25 deg by tomorrow morning. (That's up for grabs as the Weather Bureau here is nothing better than a random numbers generation department. Bingo callers we like to call them.) There are even predictions of the -30 mark on Wednesday. I'll find out whether I can actually withstand true Canadian winter conditions this week. Kerri's going to hate it!

On the up side, this cold snap should have arrived some weeks ago. Word has it that this has been a very mild winter this year.
