This is what I get for moving to northern Canada! Back home, it is a warm 22C right now, and here I am getting ready to shovel and scrape the ice off my car

Well, it's better there than it is even further north! You're right though- it seems too early for snow.

YTH is about 900km north of the Minnesota-Canada border. It is one of Canada's coldest cities, even though it is only around 55 degrees North latitude. Apparently we can get below -55C in the winters, and I am definetly not looking forward to that!!

We set a record last week. 108 deg. Beat the old records for last 150 years by 9 deg. Other places nearby were warmer. I heard 111 in LLO.

I'd have give $100 for a snow shower...

naked!

 

[GravityHater]

omg you guys need to relocate. Can you not get evacuated like the hurricane victims?

I have never seen a thunderstorm with freezing rain and ice pellets before! This is bizarre and awesome!

YTH-10 months of winter, followed by two months of bad sledding.

Ha ha. How is Perimeter treating you?

Heard Larry is off to Cathay.

Yeah - I remember that day. I was down in Laredo. ATIS was reporting 47 degrees. The cute LBFM working at the FBO said that LRD was the hottest location in the country that day. Brutal.

Hey Bongo,

Check pms.

 

[minitour]

I'll be the first to ask the stupid question this year...

Can you pick up structural ice in snow?
