Trump fixes global warming

However this is more realistic , at least for the prairie provinces and the American Midwest haha

Haha we have hurricanes and now snow lol.

I believe that long SW Louisiana…..they had Blizzard Warnings for a while!


Kind of a mini-hurricane……with snow! memtb

They say variety is the spice of life…and life here in winter is a bit boring by that metric.

We really don't have much else besides just soul crushingly long dark cold winters haha, and the odd tornado but nothing like Oklahoma and Kansas and such (though the single deadliest natural disaster in Saskatchewan history was an F4 class tornado in 1912 that ripped through the provincial capital of Regina, killing 28 and injuring 300+ - they do happen here for sure, especially in the southern part of the province - a prairie thunderstorm is a unique
bit of weather, even if further north).

No earthquakes to speak of, no volcanoes, no hurricanes, no avalanches or flash floods or rockslides or mudslides to speak of as all of those require topography and steep elevation changes

But for many folks from November to January it's dark when you're going to work and dark again when you're coming home, it typically gets below -40 several times throughout a given winter, and you'll have stretches where for weeks on end it's below -25 every day and of course the snow can make a person feel a bit trapped, can't just go for a stroll wherever once its deep and drifted in haha. It gets old. It's beautiful, but by February we've HAD IT!

But you know we're proud of how cold
It gets hahaha, that we don't die! It's like a brag disguised as a complaint for half of us up here (and again in the American Midwest i observe much the same sentiment).

What I really cannot handle is extreme heat! And it does get hot here in the summer! Not Arizona hot for the most part, but hot nonetheless, a few days a summer will hit or exceed 38c or 100f. I complain about that WAAAAY more than about -35 and to be honest I'd rather be outside in the extreme cold. I can dress for it and stay active. There is a limit on how much I can undress and being active is right out of the question in that heat!. I can't cope when it's that hot, I am not built for that. I AINT NO REPTILE!!!!'

I can handle down to -20f. But get really crotchety below that. Can't cope with 80 or higher, start looking like human spam cooking.

There's a mental image I wish I could unsee….

That's hilarious. I've got a guy I've done a lot of business with in lake Charles, he always gives me a hard time about the cold. It's currently warmer here than there with less snow.... I'll have to give him a call in the morning. Southerners on ice are the funniest people.

60 degrees in September or October, priceless

Ice fishing yesterday

You got this. Put a hoodie on.

That snowfall in LA should help put out the fires and I imagine the winds have died down too. Sounds like a good deal. It is lovely here today, 32F and only about a 30 mph wind. Downright balmy for Edmonton in January.

By LA he meant Louisiana.

Ya, this morning was brutal...-25*F here

-20 in bedford pa.
