That's -18 C, for those who don't use our inbred system of measurement. I can't wait to start my snowmobile, I love the cold.

I like cold temperatures, but sometimes it's a little too cold. As today in Montréal: -25°C

We got a WINDCHILL WARNING of -38°C to -40°C like you can see here:

Today high was 22 F low was 10 F.. with wind chill hovering around -5 F..

Ironically.. there calling for 50 F mid week..

I know alot of you are saying that your extreme colds are worse.. and I know they are..
But honestly.. I think where I live has to have the worst all around weather in the world. The weather swings widely between extremes often in less then 24 hrs. It can be 50 here during the day.. and 10 at nite..
Drives my sinuses nuts.

(Meanwhile in the sumer we peak around 107... and 99 percent humidity. It's the humidity that kills you)

I think RC45 probably has you beat for the Summer weather dude hehe...Houston is downright terrible on that front. I know some 1st generation Vietnamese immigrants who think that the old country was more pleasant from a weather standpoint hehehe.

I'm thinking more year round.. We have the worst as a total package. (He doesn't have to deal with this -5 shit... lucky bastard.. Man do I wish I was offered that job).

(It was June when I was in Houston.. That counts as summer right? Road in RCs vette at the time as well).

Oh and we rarely get snow, but we still have our weekly ice storms and our yearly blizzard ( 2 years ago that was 3 feet.. ). This summer we were unlucky to the tune of 7 inches of rain in a single day (and that wasnt the only day we had rain measured above 5 inches this summer. 2 years before.. we had a drought..
All I ask for is a little consistancy.. is that too much?
