But this is Winterpeg after all, and we get cold snaps.. just look at Jan-Feb 1996, or Feb 1966, or Jan-Feb 1936 (hmmm.. see a pattern there??) <br /><br />I'll just be glad when we get back into the minus teens again. We've been below -20 since Feb 2nd, and it doesn't look like we'll be above -20 right through the upcoming weekend (I see the forcast is calling for highs of -17 on Thur Fri and Sat, but I have my doubts we'll get that "warm") <br /><br />Stay warm!

Hopefully there was not widespread damage or injuries. Wow..what is going on?<br /><br />DanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
