It's so fucking cold you can feel the hairs in your nose sticking together when you breathe, and your forehead hurts after a few minutes walk

How do you even live in that type of weather? I think it's freezing when its 40F. When it's too cold to go outside you need to move to another location.

Weather stations estimate I'll be getting around seventeen inches of snow. Currently 25f.

Seconded. Susan, you need a winter home in the states.

Yeah, we've had our handful with similar weather around here as well. But then again, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, o'aight? Some of my friends don't wear long-legged underwear until it hits -20 Celsius / -4 Fahrenheit.

Try my city LOL

"Calgary is a city of extremes, and temperatures have ranged anywhere from a record low of −45 Â°C (−49 Â°F) in 1893 to a record high of 36 Â°C (97 Â°F) in 1919. Temperatures fall below −30 Â°C (−22.0 Â°F) on about five days per year, though extreme cold spells usually do not last very long."

Sounds like Finland in a really tight package.

There's a double-whammy for you, Susan. You live in Canada, which is a frigid inhospitable wasteland barely capable of supporting life. Also, you're raised in a place that wants to be French but never will be, so you bear the curse of your ancestors.

I'm visiting PL these days.
When I arrived it was about -20 during day (and very sunny) dropping lower during the night. Now for a few days it's been aroun 1 degree and snowing. It's supposed to go back to freezing after the weekend. From this perspective southern England where people panic about -5 and 2 inches of snow, crashing their cars skidding in non-winter tyres seems unreal.

It's pretty much the same in Montreal

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal#Climate

Though with wind, during winter, it sometimes feel like -45, and with humidity in summer, +45.

Winter should be hanged by its nuts.

I can deal with the cold, but what kills me is that chicks stop wearing skimpy shit and shaving legs and otherwise looking hot.

Time to move to Miama'.

I'm sorry for you.. Gahh I hate the winter weather. Atleast someone knows what it's really like in hell

It was finally warming up here, but then the weather took a dive again. It's just cold, dry, and miserable with unrelenting winds. The wind is probably the worst part, coupled with the shoddy worksmanship of all Egyptian buildings. Gaps around doors and windows means the dust gets blown right in and covers everything.

35ÂºC here!

Sure feels like 44, though!

I can't even fucking sleep because of the heat!
