Thanks for the bitter,single-digit temperatures you so thoughtfully sent our way this weekend. My rear window on my car thanks you because it shattered when I warmed up my car.

On the other hand, real thanks for sending us The Guess Who and the Cowboy Junkies.:cheers::cheers:

Don't thank Canada, we sent it to them first and they didn't want it. :drop: Kinda like re-gifting :D:D

I will be traveling in NWT next week and will be within 150km of the Arctic circle. I will log in and give an update on Tuesday. For the record, Ekati was -37C the other day not including the wind chill.

I have arrived safely and current temperature is -41C without the wind chill. For anyone who cares, after -20C, cold is cold.

If they have any FREE samples up there, I'll take a couple of pounds. :D:D

This is my 6th time here and I'm still looking for connections!:D

**Shwing** · 01-28-2008, 11:05 PM

minus 30 C here today, and with the windchill it was about minus 45. Only a 4 foot deep snow drift across my whole driveway.

supposed to warm up to minus 17 C by end of the week!

:-}

Beats hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, wildfires and 110F in the summer though.

**chip anderson** · 01-28-2008, 11:34 PM

Last week we had our winter with lows 28-30, it's gone now and we are pushing 60. We hope for spring in another week or two with 70's and high 70's.

Eat your heart out!

I landed briefly in EDM on Sunday evening. Cold, bumpy, and a ton of blowing, drifting snow on the runway.

Came to work today +2C with rain going down to -40C tonight

**Jacqui** · 01-29-2008, 12:54 PM

We have a blizzard coming in, windchills are expected to go down to -30.

**Jacqui** · 01-29-2008, 02:01 PM

The weather forcast was just updated to include long periods of white-out conditions and windchills to -40F (same as
-40C)

Next it's going to move to Ontario. ;)

**eyemanflying** · 01-29-2008, 02:06 PM

You can keep it. It was -41C this morning at camp and I was looking forward to returning to the balmy Ontario winter.

**Snitgirl** · 01-29-2008, 04:59 PM

Right now its 0/C feels like -5C. Snow is coming down and it is at 5" now..For this Southern California girl, its truly an amazing thing to see...

LOVE IT!
