Ah… the first arctic high pressure system off the season has descended from the North. Overnight temperatures have descended to a frosty -35 degrees Celsius. Time once again to embrace hot chocolate, snow tires and multiple layers of clothing.

At least where you are the weather firmly decides what season to be in. Over here, earlier this week, we got ice pellets, snow rain, and sunshine, all within a 24-hour period!

The weather around here is scheduled to be zany as well. We have a balmy +3 to look forward to on Tuesday. Just enough warmth for the snow to melt and freeze into ice everywhere :/

Omg, I normally don’t mind winter, but this turning from 1C \lows to -36 lows overnight is a bit much.

Was it really that quick? Damn! I just got to Edmonton yesterday and it wasn’t so much the cold, but that frigging wind! Nothing like a real fire, though, once you get in! I miss that a lot down south.

I can’t speak for Edmonton, but down here in southern Alberta it sure was. It was literally one day of having above zero temperature and the next having -18 as the high.

The annual Winter Solstice Wiener Roast is always a hit. It’s just all the sliding around the firepit because of the melting snow turning to ice which is problematic.
