    Good afternoon! It's not a nice day, too windy. The sun is shining though so it's nicer than yesterday when we had rain off and on all day. Total, near half an inch. We might have gotten Toni's rain, too. I wished any snow headed this way somewhere else so maybe it's coming down on Eileen and EJ.
    Cold tonight and tomorrow and then warming back to 70 degs. I could use that 70 degs all year around. No heat or a/c bills.

    Walking the dogs this morning was like being in a ghost town,..not a sinner to be seen,..later it was found traffic could only travel on one main road,..over a foot of snow,..but it was minus 13 C,..so solid ice under the snow.
    Most shops remained closed,..staff could not travel to work,..schools closed,..as was the Airport,..all transport!,..any staff who managed to get to work were allowed home at 1500hrs,..more snow tonight and freezing,..its terrible,..but Ho,..ho,..smile!.

    Good morning Garden Stewers... I'm wondering how all the snow bunnies are doing today.... I hope you're all warm and well fed and guarding your backs if you are shoveling!

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently 2°C and raining. It seems everyone is getting winter weather (snow) except us here in Ontario! Off to do some errands and shopping today.

    Good morning all. Ice in the birdbath this morning but going up to around 60 by late afternoon. Tomorrow will be warmer so cleaning up the freeze killed annuals will be on my 'to-do' list.

    Today is up for grabs, other than the givens of laundry and dirty dishes of course.

    Good morning. I'm frozen to the core. We've had between -6° to 12°C for weeks. That is 21° to 10°F. The forecast is promising milder weather and some snow for the week-end, but I'm not holding my breath.

    We're decorating for Christmas and otherwise trying to do fun things to keep our minds off the garden plants that won't survive. :(

    Enjoy the day people.

    Penny, Hope you won't get buried!
    It is a balmy 28F here, but clear & sunny.
    I'm off to work, mulching a bed of roses, and getting them tucked in for winter.

    Good day all. Currently 0°C and overcast. I was out on the roof most of the day trying to get it done. We should be done after one more good day. Now off to make dinner :)

    Good morning all stewbies.
    We had some thunder showers because it was just too hot yesterday.
    I hope all northern hemisphere stewbies keep warm. :stew1:
