After months of unusually mild winter temperatures and very little snow, things have suddenly changed and we woke up to -16°C (3°F) this morning. Over the last few days we have also gotten maybe a foot (30cm) of snow on top of the 5 inches we had on the ground.
The photo shows that I plugged in the block heater on the car to warm up the engine a bit in case we need to drive into town for something. I have gotten the snowblower out maybe four times over the last few days to clear the driveway, and will get it out again as soon as I am done with this blog.
While I like the snow, I am not a fan of really cold weather, and sadly, the forecast for Monday night is -30°C (-22°F). We’ve been through much colder in the past, but that doesn’t make the prospects any easier to face. It looks like we will be into the frigid air for at least a week, which doesn’t thrill me, but we will muddle through.
