> [@Das\_Glasperlenspiel](#): > > -31 F here in Ottawa today. It’s 10 degrees warmer in Iqualuit! I dug out my long underwear, the Arctic Program parka and James Bay mitts and my military surplus mukluks just so I could wait for the bus without freezing important bits of anatomy. Now the office is too hot :smack:. And people wonder why the Prairies have such awful public transportation. Who the hell wants to walk somewhere and wait in the cold? That’s why they invented automatic car starters! 😃 > [@Cat\_Whisperer](#): > > It’s only -11ºC here today, on our way to plus 3. Heat wave! Going to be in Edmonton this weekend, looking forward to the weather! Yes, I said that. 😉 ---

Minus 10 this morning. Monday the high was -4. That’s fairly typical here for this time of year. This week is usually the coldest of the year. Coldest I’ve ever experienced here was one February day in '96 when it was -32. And we laugh at the OP. 18??? 😉 ---

-15 windchill in Chicago this morning. Now it’s burning up at a whole 10 above. Good Christ. Yes, I know it’s winter, and yes, I know it’s the Midwest, and yes, I know whining about winter in the Midwest makes you a giant crybaby. That said, _waaaaaaah!!!_ :mad: ---

it’s the fluctuations that are killing me. The forecast for Regina for the next day gives a range, with a possible high of -3 C and a possible low of -23 C. 😕:eek:😕 ---
