hey Alex...they say misery loves company, so i'm here to tell ya i'm in the same boat. -13C this morning and a repeat for tomorrow. Got about 12" of snow on the ground still from the last storm and we get an inch or two daily it seems now. Next bigger snow this weekend. The Polar Vortex has come a callin'... hang in there my friend...one of the certainties in this crazy world is that Spring will always follow Winter.. and it's only a couple months away now. Just got my seed order in the mail and planning my raised beds. Stay warm up there and keep the home fires burnin'...

When there is snow, I pine for the mountains.

Polar vortex splitted around New Year and let the winter creeping in. I love the snowy weather and cold - a couple days ago here was almost minus 30...

Our coldest nights were -25 Celcius this year in British Columbia.  Hope that's over.

Well we have the coldest night in 100 years last night 19f while this is not as cold as some of you. The south is not equipped for below freezing temp, Most of the outside water is pipes coming out of the ground with no protection and I had three gardens in full production which will be dead now Normal for us is 60-70 for highs and lows around the mid 40's. Anyway I hope you all are staying warm

J'aime l'hiver, j'aime la neige
(https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=30707.0;attach=191218)
malheureusement cette photo a été faite dans ma campagne ..il y a 8 ans ..avec le rechauffement climatique, à l'atitude mon village en Savoie, il ne neige presque plus

ces dérèglement climatique sont vraiment préoccupants et nous risquons de laisser à nos enfant un triste heritage

J'avais posté il y a quelques temps une chanson sur les déreglement climatique écrite par ...un visionnaire dans les années 70

https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=29063.0

..there are the lyrics and their translation on the lyrics screen

Tim, I have been kind of keeping up with storms on the weather channel...it is so bizare... sorry to hear about your losses... hope you don't have much piping damage...here in NC it's been very wet but the temps have not done the big plunges as you guys got to the west...
