Reply With Quote-50 in Edmonton yesterday. Coldest on record from what I hear. Stay warm Robert. We can't have those veins freezing now. The spring thaw would flood the province.

I don't know how the heck you do that.....living way up North and freezing your butt off to go outside.....all the special things you have to do to the car, etc. Dude, better you all than me, is all I have to say.
I remember all too well, the Great Freeze of either 1980 or 1981, when it didn't get much above 5' F for a week or so. The Delaware River froze over (it's about 1 mile wide).
Yes, to you Canucks and Swedes, 5 above 0 F is child's play....but to US, it was freakin' ridiculous.

Brr.Sunday marked the coldest Dec. 13 in Edmonton’s history.
Environment Canada recorded a frigid -46.1 C, or -58.4 with wind chill, at the Edmonton International Airport at 5 a.m., Environment Canada meteorologist Pierre Lessard said.
The old record of -36.1 C was set last year, he said.
“To break a temperature by 10 degrees is very exceptional,” said Lessard.
A ridge of frigid Arctic air has hit all the prairie provinces this weekend, causing record-low temperatures in many parts of northern Alberta, Lessard said.

Those numbers are in Celsius. -46.1 C is -51 F, and -58.4 C is -73.12 F.
Please, bring on that Global Warming already!

Not sure where I can find that kind of info, but I'm going to guess -10 to -15 Celsius.

So -5C / 23F
That average isn't a ton colder than here. Average for today is 29F. We're going to be well below that (~9F) today because of those clippers you Albertans keep sending our way.

Yikes.That's it - anyone from Florida is banned from this thread! You are not allowed to even speak about cool weather.

As a kid, I did live in central Illinois a couple times, both times living in old wooden homes with not the best heating systems, and of course it does snow and get cold there.
But that was a long time ago.
Mojo to all you frostsicles!
