-33C Cold, but not nearly as cold as wading into water at this time of year getting purple legs...Ha! Obviously my wood furnace does not have Crohn's I can only wish to have an appetite like that. But I do remember once upon a time that I could pack away pizzas, like it does wood.
Went for a -27C ski yesterday, I lasted an hour and a half and by then I was good and ready to come back in. The cold is invigorating, but after awhile it starts to creep into the best of clothing. The biggest issue is the wind, and in these conditions windchill values can only be described as burning, there is no other way to describe it. Today its colder, but the wind is light, I might be able to go farther this afternoon.
10cms, that may not be much, but I've seen it on the news how it closes down areas that are not used to getting snow and don't have the equipment to move it. But why does it not occur to people to use it as an advantage to stay home and enjoy a decent glass of Scotch near the wood stove instead of being on the front page news stranded and exposed on the highways?
