Exclamation It's Cold

It got cold fast.
Well, It was +7 celsius yesterday, I looked at the temp, it read +7celsius, I look about 15 minutes later and it read -2. It is now -20celsius and some wind to boot, snow as well. Makes for some tricky driving.
Stay warm guys.

Definitely too cold for me. Last time I was in Calgary, I had to go three blocks from my hotel. I made it one block on foot, then hailed a cab. I swear my eyes were starting to freeze open.

Just got back from fighting a fire...it was -20F and everything froze up! We had water turn to ice all over the ground, our hoses froze with water still in them, our protective clothing (bunkers) froze on us so we had to come inside to warm up even to get undressed!

Wintertime firefighting...fun, fun, fun!

50's (F) during the day, 20's at night. All sorts of records being broken around here lately. Global warming? Ha! It's the dawn of a new Ice Age! -TD
