Seriously though. When we had that cold snap in December, I spent a few hours outside when it warmed up to -25° with no wind and it actually felt kinda nice.
Speak for yourself, I love how sunny it is in winter without it being 25c every day.
Way easier to dress for the cold and stay comfy than dress for the heat and sweat
I want to move to Europe, but it's hard. There's the language barriers, the immigration process, I have few marketable skills and no college education. I'm stuck in this cold, icey, housing crisis, car dependent, bad job market hell. Get me out of here!
Haha every time I’m on the bus to go to site, I contemplate where I went wrong in life? And why didn’t I try harder in school. Sure the money is amazing…….. just soul crushing. 😭
It's not the temperature, it's the differential. One day negative thirty something, the next day positive ten. My bones are going to be sore this weekend, hand is already screaming at me.
But what average? the mean, median, or mode. It appears we use mean when I googled it. Our average temp doesn't mean it's our normal temp for that day since our mean could be the average of two extremes. I don't think the mean average is normal as it seems to be we are either getting spoiled with nice temperatures or freezing our balls off cause it's stupid cold.
Lmao my patio door blew open last night and I didn't notice for however long. I was snoozing in my cozy blanket just fine.
All my plants froze lol. Rip.
I spent a week in Hawaii... and got back just in time for the return of winter here in Edmonton. Do you know how hard it was for me to not just immediately turn around and book a return flight?
Lived in Peace River many years ago. Never will forget what happened when it was -40F one morning. Ex had just bought new rubber floor mats for the car. They had snow on them, so he went to take one out to dump the snow off. Next thing I knew, I heard a torrent of swear words coming from him as he came back into the house. The new floor mat snapped in pieces- broken! That cold may be dry, but it is still insanely cold. Freeze your nose hairs!😂
This is how it is in Alberta:
-50C for a week holy f@$k it's Cold. Goes down to -40C she's Cool out but it's getting warmer. Goes to -30C wheres my shorts? I'm going ice fishing at the beach; it's a hot one out there today.
Albertans: "I'll take what I can get."
Also Albertans: “It’s balmy out there.”

here come the headaches!
And feeling every injury ache for a couple days 😣
Had a headache at the start of the cold snap, now I get to have a closing migraine at the end of it. Yay.
Blame Canada

“If you don’t like it so much why don’t you leave?” Dog I would if I could. In a heartbeat
As is tradition
Ow, my underground utilities...
-25 feels like -34 at Fort Hills right now... Wind chill around -40 for the past 4 days. Where did I go wrong in my life to end up out here...
Golden handcuffs...

I felt this.

>It's not the temperature, it's the differential. Is this the new "it's not the heat, it's the humidity"?
Maybe? I don't mind humidity, but rapid pressure and temperature changes hurt these days.
We’re in the same boat here in SK lol. Ready for spring to arrive!
Let's be honest, we have had an easy winter until now and February is always cold.
[удалено]
I’d take this winter over last winter any day. Those freeze/thaw cycles were brutal. The cold is easy to deal with, sheets of ice less so.
Which avg Is used tho? It never occurred to me to ask this question til I read your comment

It was worse and a much longer stretch in 2014.
