Right now in Calgary, it's -26ºC but feels like -36ºC. brrrrr
It's only supposed to reach -21ºC. No snow for us today. We have enough........ But we will have flurries tomorrow.

Same as you. It's supposed to end some time in the afternoon. Then windy with wicked wind chills. I'm supposed to attend a Winter Solstice party I go to every year, but the thought of driving home in bitter cold with blowing, drifting snow does not appeal to me.

I think I'll stay home and make some lentil soup.

We have 8-12" in our area here..Belleville Ont.and that fell between 3 a.m. and noon today

We are about 2 hrs east of To, and 2 hrs west of Ottawa

With us being so close to the water,we get this sort of weather...not a biggie really if one uses common sense when it comes to what to do,where to go and whether or not your really need to.

looking out the window..it's windy...the snow isn't coming down...Weather widget says 33F and overcast. Starting to finally warm up a bit....I hope it's gradual...I'd rather it be that, then a sudden thaw..with all the snow in my back yard sitting on my poor aging drain field!!!!

right now it's snowing. 30F. It doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon.

Mostly clear,but a few flurries passing by now and then...should get heavier flurries tomorrow.

So cold here (central Illinois) all day. Only 1° right now.

Gee I am jealous! You guys have snow! We have nothing except cold- minus 17 this am. 0 this afternoon. When there is just cold, without snow, I feel it is worthless! No skiing, sledding, ice-skating- or, because I'm not allowed to do any of those anymore- just a walk/ride in the sparkly snow would be great! I love deep, freh snow- reminds me of when we would be snowed in- using the fireplace, making simple meals on the fire, sleeping in the livingroom- when a bit older, the same thing, but add a glass of wine or hot toddy to the list. With friends staying with us because their house had no heat and ours did. Geee...Sigh...

It's been in the 20s here in Portland, Oregon. We have about 8 inches of snow, the top layer being ice. We missed school all last week, but now we are on winter break. Otherwise I bet we'd miss more.

Sheryl, who is not used to this weather.

Went to bed with blustery N winds last night and woke to bone chilling temps of 14-16 degrees, with a wind chill of about 6 degrees here in N GA! The good news is DD and her family are enjoying 62 degrees this morning at their home in Leigh Acres, Florida.

Best of all, husband's Christmas gift to us is a surprise quick trip down to spend Christmas morning with his three "best" girls! Although, we'll probably be driving in the rain Tuesday night and most of Wednesday (8 hr drive straight through) it will definitely be worth it!

Can already say, just because of the weather, I will not want to come home! Have a great holiday!

Currently sunny here near London, ON and has begun snowing in the past half hour.

Temp. 18 degrees (-7 C.)

Wind from the west at about 10 m.p.h.?? (15 km.?) ... but it feels cold: not sure of wind chill factor.

Payday today: the two gov't. pension cheques arrived in the mailbox (slightly earlier than usual in Dec., before Christmas).

Expecting more snow - they've been assuring us that we'll be having a white Christmas.

It appears that this old (whatever) hasn't acclimatized to the season yet, as last evening after dark, en route home along what used to be a rural boundary road between two municipalities, I had a choice of travelling down what's a highway for about three miles, then along a fairly active rural road, or continuing along the boundary road, rather lightly travelled, for a fairly short distance, then along a fairly well used road, which was slightly closer.

The snow plough was coming to meet me along the boundary road, which I chose ... and, keeping to the right to give him space ...

... I ran into a snowbank, about 100 feet from the corner ... and got stuck.

The snowplough driver did his thing, clearing out the corner, waiting for traffic on the highway, then drove past me, stopped, dropped the wing that throws the snow far from the road, about 4 feet in front of my car ...

... and took off down the road, ploughing the snow.

I had got out my shovel and dug some snow, this couch potato not appreciating the wind and the cold, and a guy in a red truck that had been waiting for the plo-ugh! offered to dig out his tow rope and give me a tow ... which offer I accepted with alacrity.

It was a quick and easy tow to get me out, and I went my way.

My neighbour agreed that my choice of road had not been the best ...

... and we agreed that it was probably due to the place where I got stuck being part of the city that caused me not to get help from the operator of the plough ...

...that had it been a county/rural plough operator, very likely he'd have hitched a chain on to my car and hauled me out.

As I said on another thread this morning, "Too soon old - too late smart".

During the time that I've been writing this message - the sun has disappeared, and snow is continuing, though a bit lighter at the moment.

Following some editing ... snowing more heavily now.

ole joyful

It's about 40° now, but it was a freezing 27° this morning.

Baby its cold outside.....temp of 23....wind chill of 12 right now here in northeast New Jersey.

See, posting Minot ND (not SD), but that is ok.
Was 31 below this morning on the way to town, and now 11 below and more snow coming.

This darn weather!! We called the plumber because the fireplace in the bedroom didn't work. Turns out there was a build of ice on the vent outside from the weird weather and wind conditions, which inhibited the oxygen intake. The guy who came said that he'd never seen that before. But our weather has been brutal.
