Yoshi wrote:After three weeks of nearly non-stop rain resulting in an 11 day boil-water advisory, we ended up with an abnormally cold week of record-breaking snowfall (roughly 17 centimetres or 6", considered a lot for Vancouver but nothing for the rest of Canada), power outages, and around -10ºC (14ºF) temperatures with -20ºC windchill (-4ºF). Wonderful.

We finally have a bit of sun though! It's 2ºC (36ºF) right now, which is still below normal for this time of year, but hey, it's a start! Definitely better than typing with gloves on in this freezing basement.


Vancouver and the UK have similar temperatures. I'm not sure why, but yep. Same with Washington State. I read about WHY we have similar temperatures, but it was in Geography class more than 4 years ago so I can't remember XD

Well. It's almost raining everyday, and it's cold. Abnormal for me. But more often will be us having lots of thunder and no rain. Oooh another thunder... o_O

Some snow in Chicago on Friday, and I actually went sledding. =P Today it was just plain cold, dipping down to -11C (11F)

Finally snow is coming, but very little. Like barely any, but it finally came. The first time this year near December. Odd.
