We are about to get a nice break from this oppressive heat wave we have been enduring. Saturday -2 for a high with a low of -18. Sunday -7 high -14 low. Monday -2 high -13 low.

Not super cold but with the 15-25mph wind it will require a long sleeve shirt for sure.

Here in northeastern Alberta this morning's temp is minus-36 Celsius, which is minus-32 Farenheit. With the wind chill, it's minus-42 C. Perfect day for sorting hockey cards and smoking cigars between naps ...

That is chilly for sure. Been lucky and we haven't hit the -30s for a few years. Just a lot of -10s and some -20s.

Now that it is a little close the predicted temps here are still cold. Later today it is supposed to get clear up to 2 with a low of -10. Tomorrow high -6 Low -20. Sunday High -9 Low -17. Monday is the start of the warm up High -4 Low -10. The wind is supposed to be 20-25mph out of the NW for the next few days.

Hope everyone stays warm.

Driving to hockey early morning Saturday and it was -8 degrees before the sun came out. Spokane, WA. My sister-in-law in MT was in the cold zone on Friday/Saturday with -30 temps.

Seattle rarely gets snow or ice. Nobody buys snow tires. when it snows even a dusting they cancel everything. The pic is from 2008, a bus hanging over the edge of Intestate 5.

I grew up in Montana for elementary 1991 - 1996. Never once had a single snow day. Never once had an indoor recess. Moved to Spokane WA in 1996, and first day of school it was barely raining and recess was in the gym. My sister and I were so confused!

LOL, yes pretty much the whole coast shuts down with a dusting of snow. The wife and I was out in Portland visiting my sister in the late 90s. We got up and was going to Seattle that day. My sister was like no it is snowing you can't travel. I grew up in rural South Dakota so to me that was a nice day. She said she was not worried about my driving but said someone who had no idea how to drive in snow would run into me.

It is currently absolutely freezing (In my opinion), here in New York. I don't do well with the cold, it might be time to move!

It could be worse, you could be out in western Canada.

High temperatures in the single digits this week and about 3 feet of snow. I am grateful that I am not there to “enjoy “ it! Florida is much nicer place to be in the winter.

Snowstorm in Spokane yesterday, up to 10 inches in places. Took a personal day to enjoy the powder before it rains on Saturday. Went snowshoeing. Car thermometer said it was 10 degrees outside when I started my walk.

Beautiful pictures. We got around 3 inches of white stuff this morning. Saturday morning is supposed to be -20. Then it will finally warm back up to the high 20s to low 30s after that.

We have had a break from the snow/cold for a while now. It has been in the lower 40s for the last week and that is really warm for here. It has been so warm almost all the snow had melted.

That was until today. It has been snowing all day and is expected to snow for another 3 to 4 hours. We have got around 5 or 6 inches so far today.

Got about a foot or so here in CT the other day. Probably the most we’ve had at one time in a couple years, but it was nice and fluffy so made for an easy cleanup.
