I bought a cold weather carhart jacket. They do not fuck around.
Pretty good! -20 here. We made crock pot dumping soup, my new snow boots and gloves arrived, and I am gonna bake coffee cake later to warm up the house.
It's only -11⁰c here in southwestern Ontario and I currently have my window cracked open. I run hot.
So far can't complain about the winter, it didn't start to snow until the second week of January so that's a huge plus. Did catch up with us but considering what winters are usually like here l can't complain too much.
It's unusual for us in Salt lake NOT be having extreme cold right now in January - it's unusually warm this year. Mid-40s, rain but not snow. Some years we've been as low as minus 6 or minus 8 in January.
The Sundance Film Festival is going on in Park City, Utah, this weekend so I wonder how they are faring up there in the canyon. It's warmer here in the valley, but there's lot of great fluffy new snow up there for skiers to enjoy. This has been an odd winter, because we didn't get ANY snow in December to speak of.
What extreme cold? Is is January, this is not unusual weather - other than maybe unusually warm. Sure it is colder than average, but there is and always has been a large variation that makes up the average, we have seen lower temperatures in the last 10 years.
