It's been a cloudy, breezy and bitterly cold day.

Ever such brief bright spells and apparantly a max of 4c, though I didn't feel it every time I stepped outside.

Now 2c and much the same.

[Roger J Smith]

Well, at least you're getting some winter. Here, day after day it is very mild and either raining, or fixing to rain. Today it's raining intermittently, so to speak. And it's 10 degrees C. It has been very mild well north of here too, in fact at Yellowknife on Great Slave Lake (about 62 deg north) it was close to zero C the past several days, which is 25 degrees above their normal. So we're not stealing any of mother nature's cold air supply here.

[I can't believe it's not better]

Sky half clear, slight breeze, dry, feels pretty bitter walking in it.

1.5 C

Humidity ~ 100% (2' above damp soil - in time surely I'll sort it out)

Not a nice time for the homeless again.

Looks like snow! (later)
