So, they're as wonderful as they look? I've been wanting one.

It's 5° here, windchill of -25°, not supposed to get much warmer tomorrow. blech.











If you have Windows (and I don't know about other systems), hitting the Alt key and 0176 will give you the degree sign. It's only fair to pass on info that others were kind enough to share!

They are. In very cold weather, I wrap mine over my head and across my nose and mouth, and I'm toasty warm.

On another message board I use, there are 6-7 internet techies, and they've shared a lot of fun stuff like that. If y'all want more, let me know!

It actually tried to snow here yesterday!!! Which is a big deal for me being from the frigid north. After ER there were some decent sized snowflakes, but by the time my friends and I got our shoes and jackets on it was dying down. We went to the beach anyway.

It also snowed a day or so after New Year - but it was at 4:30 in the morning and I shouldn't have been awake. hehe

It was 19 degree's when I drove into work this morning but the REALLY fun thing was they didn't turn the heat on in my office area this whole weekend, so it was 42 degree's when I walked in this morning. I have been here for almost 3 hours and I have yet to remove my coat or my gloves!!

how.is.this.possible
It's 9 degrees just 20 minutes northwest of the city!!! And tonight it's supposed to be 0 to -5 degrees. I'd cry but my tears would probably freeze on my face!

ETA: I left out the windchill: -5 degrees

I have literally never been in weather this cold.

Record cold across B.C.

Record cold across B.C.


Vancouver blanketed in winter...
Well we no longer have the cold artic air blowing through, now it's the Pineapple Express; however the sudden temperature increase and torential rain (the Tropical Punch) which is dumping between 30-300mm in some areas (yes that's a foot of rain in 24 hours) is causing havoc. Tonnes of rain plus melting snow is flooding the greater Vancouver Area. The only plus to all this weather fun, is the warmer weather (from a high of -2 celcius to a high of 9 celcius).
