			No. I'm quite enjoying this. -36C, -49C windchill this morning. But it's bright outside and the sun feels warm. |

			If it's any consolation, it only affects the North Americas. The rest of the world is still suffering one of the the warmest years on record.

			According to news reports here, we're in the running of top-three coldest winters in the last thirty years.

			I know that. Winter here has been awesome. By the end of the week we'll probably surpass 50 nights since mid-November with evening lows below -30C. |

			Well, now I feel kind of foolish for complaining about more snow in our local forecast. But, I'm still going to complain! |

			As I just happen to live in North America, I'm not consoled ... just tired of weekly cold fronts triggering my migraines and preventing my yard work....

			Have no fear, everyone. I've been complaining about the cold and snow as much as anyone. But I know I'll miss it around July/August. Well, maybe not the snow, which, though pretty, always leaves such a mess behind. |

			We were above freezing again, today.  At this rate all the snow will melt in six or seven weeks.

			"What meteorological phenomenon affects you this day?" Two words: polar vortex. |

			I saw a few flakes today. Some of them were snow flakes. Bing predicts snow predicted for 5 AM. |
