It sounds like a great opportunity to invest in a Telecaster. You can shovel snow with it in the winter, and paddle a canoe with it in the summer.
Except to walk the dog! But she doesn’t like this either so she gets her business done quickly.

Ha! Litterbox train them it’s the way to go! Your dog is a little big for that though
In the middle of the night it was -17° but felt “like -42°”.Man, bleak, nothing to add.
I love that...... -12 but feels like -36
Now it’s 3°, but that’s still horrible.
Our furnace is working overtime, but our house won’t pass 60°.
Same here, man. I’m not a fan of summer at all. I’m all about the late autumn, that’s when I take time off work and enjoy the outdoors.. I don’t mind winter usually. The coldest weather we usually deal with is 12-20°, but this right here is a different animal. The cold is bad, but with the wind it’s lethal. Luckily, it’ll be over tomorrow.
Same here, I love the comfort of being in a warm home with the comfort of my family and my obsessions, but not with this kind of cold. Our house and heating system, err most people’s houses and heating systems around here, are not equipped for extreme subzero temps with violent wind. I have a feeling many folks around here are going to freak out and start upgrading their systems.
Caleb,
- 40 here in Ottawa.
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Tomorrow, we're supposed to be back up on the plus side.
Best,

If you upgrade anything it should be insulation. I spray foamed my basement and save almost 100$ a month on the coldest months and 30-50 the rest of the year.
Caleb,
Used to be quite common actually, but not for quite a while.
Last year, annual skating on the Rideau River was very short as there was not enough ice.
A couple days ago, a lot of annual Winterlude festivities were cancelled because it was just too cold.
Imagine, ice sculpturing cancelled because it's too cold, they said it was a combination of too cold for human comfort, and the sculpture ice being too hard.
Best,
BIB.
Going to the right direction.

Remember we're on Celsius here in Canada so often it looks more extreme if you're used to Fahrenheit, but guess what? -40C and -40F are the same!

Scale is a funny thing. Always wondered why we have so many different scales. Not musical.Remember we're on Celsius here in Canada so often it looks more extreme if you're used to Fahrenheit, but guess what? -40C and -40F are the same!
Man, I don't like rubbing it in, but it getting into the 30s during the day where I live is crazy. It's 45 right now and people are complaining

We hit 30 today and I’m actually too warm in my normal winter jacket. That’s just what happens when you spend to much time outside in subzero temps.Man, I don't like rubbing it in, but it getting into the 30s during the day where I live is crazy. It's 45 right now and people are complaining

As a former bicycle mechanic I appreciate metric
Winter is usually when I do my Model Railroading in the basement but it's too cold today. Tomorrow it will be in the 30s and I'll be down there for sure.
Invest in carbon fiber guitars. No change with temperature!
