    Hasnt got above -4 in the day time for the last week, -14 at night. My lips are chapped, the dog shit is frozen to the ground in the garden and the birds are lying dead on the ground. So anyway, have these electric radiators in the house, and they just are juseless in this cold. But we have this 13 kw wood burner. Christ it is hot! It really pumps out the heat, it is amazing. We can heat the whole house on it just on convection alone. Gotta love a good wood burner, when it gets interglacial, you cant beat them! :)

      Around here when it gets to -4 towards the end of winter we start opening the windows to let fresh air in the house :)

          Bummer. It's 83 here, and I've been working on the truck, watering the garden, pruning a bit, and planting roses. Later I may have to put a shirt on, just in case it gets nippy. ;P

                -18°C in the UK this morning[^] it struggled up to 2°C early afternoon now back down to -3°C just before 22:00. Although I suspect I will have to guard against heat stroke next week when it is slated to reach 7-8°C for several days.

                  Hmph, -19 in the day time, -25 at night. ;) Fortunately, it is getting warmer in the recent days, it's 11 P.M. and just -18.

                    Well, I'm not surprised. I would expect the Poles to be cold.

                      My heater just can't take all the cold anymore (cold coming in from all sides)... It's about -5C outside and 19C in my room (heater has been on max for at least a full day) and I'm freezing (figuratively speaking)... I can't even imagine that I delivered newspapers at 5 in the morning and cycled 12 kilometers to school at -10C just a couple of years ago! :wtf: I guess working life has turned me into a pussy ;p

                                That's got to be some kind of sick joke right :wtf: I've got a 10 hour wait between connections there on Tuesday and was planning to do some sight seeing (CN Tower looks pretty), but I guess I'll stay in the airport :sigh:

                                  I wish it were. :( Anyway, Tuesday's forecast calls for temps just above freezing with a chance of snow showers, so you should be OK.  But do dress warm as Toronto can be pretty windy. /ravi

                                    Hasnt got above -4 in the day time for the last week, -14 at night. My lips are chapped, the dog shit is frozen to the ground in the garden and the birds are lying dead on the ground. So anyway, have these electric radiators in the house, and they just are juseless in this cold. But we have this 13 kw wood burner. Christ it is hot! It really pumps out the heat, it is amazing. We can heat the whole house on it just on convection alone. Gotta love a good wood burner, when it gets interglacial, you cant beat them! :)

                                    Then I don't suppose you want to hear me bitching that the weather is so monotonous here, 28 to 33 deg day after day after day ... ;P

                                        Hasnt got above -4 in the day time for the last week, -14 at night. My lips are chapped, the dog shit is frozen to the ground in the garden and the birds are lying dead on the ground. So anyway, have these electric radiators in the house, and they just are juseless in this cold. But we have this 13 kw wood burner. Christ it is hot! It really pumps out the heat, it is amazing. We can heat the whole house on it just on convection alone. Gotta love a good wood burner, when it gets interglacial, you cant beat them! :)

                                          I remember that all too well. The first house I rented after college had electric baseboard heat. One winter it reached -22°F; even with the thermostat set to the maximum, the temperature in the house was only in the 50's.
