Winter around the world

[rob love]

Hasn't snowed that bad there Darrel. Not only can you still clearly see the roof of the shed, but you can even see part of the car. Around these parts we call that fall.

Every day I look at the weather forecast and everyday it is below average. The above average winters are far and few between. I would like to know how they figure the average high here should be -5 these days, and in reality the best we will hope for is the -14 scheduled for later in the week. Even that is just the carrot they dangle so we stay here.

There seem to be a few on here who like to exaggerate their present temperatures to make them seem worse than they really are. So here, to shed light on the real truth of the matter, are links to some of the Canadians on this thread.
