You sure that's Iowa and not Alberta Jim:D What a hell of a winter, it's been almost as bad here in Toronto, and worse in Sydenham!
Looks like you had a blast out West!

Not to worry, the snow melts real fast in our Zone. It was melting at -8C (17f), the air mass is cold still yes, but with the sun's angle, its rays are much much warmer nowadays... The end is near 😆

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

It isnt even the worse up here, not by a long shot. Sask is brutal, same with manitoba. To be fair, I think id be better off in S ontario or BC lol

is it the time for this, or it's too early?
Spring is almost here! I can now see the deer moving around in our back yard.

Topic starter
Looks like we are heading to the lowest winter temp by the end of February... It's so boring! This month is colder than typically at 10 degree Celsius. Crap!

considering what happen last year with my washy, I will open that box probably at the beginning of May (Trachys can come out at the beginning of April). 6 Months in a cage, that's not fun.

Man oh man, you folks in the eastern half of the continent have gotten nailed this winter.
But there'll at least not be water restrictions 😆
I was down in Wenatchee Washington for 3 days last week.
56 F, people walking around in T shirts.
Car window down Thurs and Friday.
It was bloody wonderful!
Hated to come home...especially seeing our gas prices compared to theirs! 🙄
$2.19 gallon U.S.
about 288 per cent less than gas prices in B.C.

Thats because most of our gas gets shipped to the states to be refined then sold back to us through tariffs/taxes..... The only real refineries in canada are one or two in S ontario and one or two on the east coast. Dont even think we have any legitamate "reserves"....

Ooops, yes it was $3.19.
Still a pantload cheaper than in Canada... 😡
to Jesse: maybe Flaherty's new "Competition Bureau", announced with the budget, will look into it.
...all smoke 'n mirrors. 🙄
