Just snapped this outside. Talk about cutting into your riding time. This is what -50C looks like. Those aren't clouds. That's ice fog from cars and houses. Wanna go for a ride?Kinda SUCKS here...over a foot of snow and still coming down...High temps Monday & Tuesday of 0 degrees F.

0W doesn't flow to good either. It's fun driving to work when it's this cold. Everybodies exhaust freezes the instant it hits the roads making for black ice, usually in the right hand track only. Which means if you hit the brakes, your gonna spin. Ever see what happens to plastic at -50C when it gets hit? It doesn't crack and fall off. It shatters.
Take comfort in the fact that your running snow tires. Real ones. You know, rubber that stays soft at sub-freezing temperatures. When it's this cold, they flat spot and it feels like your driving a Fred Flintstone mobile with 4 square tires.
Ya, us Frostbacks. We're a hardy, stupid bunch.

Yeah, it's a concrete corn cob. So?
The snow rolled through yesterday and dropped several inches of the white stuff. Now it's sunny but cold. And, like Joe said, it's gonna get colder. And the early weather forecast models are showing us getting up to another foot of snow come Sunday into Monday. Hoo-fucking-ray. At least I have a really short commute these days...

Come up to Sudbury and tell me that again.
It's -20C out right now and the girl guides are worried their cookies are going to start melting.

Cold now (-7F when I got up this morning), snow everywhere. Up to another foot of snow forecasted for Sunday then high temps below zero F for Monday and Tuesday.

32 degrees, that's degrees C at 9 am this morning, heading to 39 +
A mate had a facebook photograph of a car out central Queensland with 50 degrees C showing on the dash.

Got down to -14F last night.
Deb and I met friends out at an Indian Restaurant. The spicy food was actually a good call, but the "hard nipples" atmosphere soon won out.
And... I only ride snowmobiles in this weather for good reason....
