The weather outside is delightful...

Am I still in Canada? Our 14 day forecast only has one day where the temperature is going to drop below 0. As someone that was born and raised here - i've never adapted to the winters - so I'm in absolute heaven. If this is what global warming is bringing - well, as they say - every cloud has a silver lining. Guess i won't have to pack up and move down south after all.

8 years ago we had our worse Ice Storm ever (well, it was labeled "Ice Storm of the Century"). Luckily, besides lots of snow Toronto wasn't hit too badily by it. As I've been browsing around today it looks like Toronto has avoided most of the severe weather issues in Canada.

Some Canadian trivia:

Winter Records
Canada is a land of extremes! Here are some mind-boggling weather records!

Victoria, British Columbia, is the Canadian city with the lowest average annual snowfall.

Snag, Yukon holds the record of lowest recorded temperature: on February 3, 1947, it was a bone-chilling -63 degrees Celsius!

Yellowknife, Northwest Territories is the city with the coldest winters: the average nighttime temperature in December, January and February is 29.9 degrees Celsius.

Vancouver, British Columbia experiences the fewest days a year below freezing.

Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador is the snowiest city in the country with an average annual snowfall of 422 centimetres.

I'm pretty sure they meant to say Yellowknife, NWT is minus 29.9 degrees.

Now, if we could just bring the sun out a little bit more (not complaining tho).
