The last week of December and the first 2 weeks of January are generally the worst. 20 years ago we normally would be around -30C through the whole period. It has been nicer in the past 5 years with generally erratic weather through the winter. We have been getting -30C 4 or 5 times per year. It can come in any month from November through the beginning of March. I am originally from NW Alberta (Zone 2a -45C) and Edmonton seems warm still. That said, I'd still love to be in the Okanagan or southern Idaho.

"rankings should appear under your avatar for the amount of posts you make."

Does the number of posts you make have any true bearing on your ranking?
What is "ranking" and it's meaning on this forum ❓

Cheers, Barrie.

Well the higher your posts the higher your rank is and that means at the end of the year the person with the highest posts wins either a trachy with ten feet of trunk or a 30 gallon sabal minor palm. I'm just kidding. 😆

Ranking is just the title under your username you get for the amount of posts you make. It really has no meaning. Just for fun i guess. 🙂

Just like everything else in life I am working my way up the ladder. I can hardly wait until I become a sprout. Please no sprout jokes.
