    Not surprised but it is and has been unusually colder then normal. And so to is the amount of snow that we have already. However there is not much else to do but watch the storm and moan about it. :yup:

    Cold in Utard but no snow and a nasty inversion and pollution layer. It's a total no burn, no drive (if possible) situation. G Gack! You could cut the air with a knife.

    back east you have the snow.... it's been raining here all day. 2 long walks with the dogs and some play time in the woods = several large towels in the wash and the mop bucket in the kitchen at the ready.

    All I really know about this shoveling is you people are giving me cold chills. :cry:
    I actually do have my old snow shovel sitting out against the fence visible from the living room. Haven't needed it so far in 19 1/2 years. When I do I'm throwing it in the wagon and moving south.

    Right now, it is -26 C out there. With windchill, it is about -40, which is damned bitter!

    Shiver me timbers! So at these kind of temperatures, your home heating plant runs continuously? What do you heat with? Nat Gas? Propane? Elect? Wood stove?...........or maybe all 4,lol!? :confused:
