Well it's finally winter here. I reported yesterday that we had only
gotten minimal snow and some chilly weather in the face of the storm
front that was sweeping across the continent.
Today I must report that we have now received approximately 1.5 feet of snow [more or less depending on where you live in the area] and the mercury is currently settled at -20 !!
The weather site is also saying that it "feels like" -40 !! 
Now
THAT'S more like it. This is what winter in Atlantic Canada is supposed
to feel like. Not all the time. But the middle of January is supposed
to feel like... well the middle of
January and not like the first buds of spring are around the corner.
I
may sound happy and even thrilled about it but that's only because it's
not going to last. No the forecast has already predicted that by Friday
it will be +5 and rainy. So I'll 'enjoy' the snow and the nostalgic
ride down frozen memory lane for a day or two. That's enough for me
anyway. Like taking a vacation to the arctic. "Wasn't that fun? Wasn't that cold? Sure am glad we're back to warmer climes though."
Here's hoping that the weather guy has his ducks in a row. I'd hate to be disappointed. As much as I enjoy watching my southern husband deal with the cold I'll be glad when we get back to the 'globally warmed' winter. Not only is it more comfortable, it's a lot easier on the power/heating bills.
