  1. It was a balmy 59 degrees here this morning in South Jersey. Supposed to be 6 tomorrow round sunrise. Terrific.

  2. Its a balmy 5 degrees or 40 F in Greensboro, NC a lot warmer than good old Saskatchewan and because of the storms and cold I have been flight delayed for 6 days trying to get home. This is a nasty bout of weather

  4. It was a chilly 10 degrees at my house here in Dallas, Texas this morning.
    I could use some global warming about right now. The electric company was sending out bulletins on the news this morning to reduce electricity usage to avoid rolling brownouts. Lovely.

  6. 18 degrees in N. Louisiana, last I saw this kind of chill was 1978 when it fell to 7 degrees and the lake down at the park froze over so thick we could ride our 3-wheelers across it.
    What gets me about the Weather Station on direcTV is it never shows the temps in Canada, all temps stop at the US/Canadian Border.

  7. BTW – what’s the running tally on the number of icebreakers stuck down there in Antarctica? I’ve lost count frankly.

  8. Makes me chuckle when the Americans say ‘negative’ and the temp of the moment. Much more of this “global warming” and they’ll switch to the Canadian way of saying ‘minus’ once their lips start cracking on every third syllable.

  10. This is just God’s way of flipping the bird to the global warming crowd, but I wish he would spare the rest of us.

  11. The temperature has increased almost six degrees here in four hours. At this rate of global warming we could be over -30 by noon. I don’t know where my dog is peeing but he has refused to step outside the house for the last 12 hours.

  12. Sun tanning weather here at a positively balmy minus 23C! Certainly beats last week’s minus 35 and this weekend past minus 30. Wind chill not included. Oh yes I worked outside.

  13. This my friends is why the flyover over states enjoy the status of panhandler-free zones. The extreme temps really filter the riff-raff.

  14. No wonder the american’s think Canada is the ‘great white north’. seems weather patterns start/end at the border… ;-b

  18. After four days with daytime highs that never exceeded – 17F, it went down to -27F on Friday night/Saturday morning.
    Gradually climbed back up to 42F by ten a.m. today. But, it’s supposed to go down to -15 F overnight.
    A Question for St. David: was AGW always this fickle and fleeting? 😉

  19. The shark jumpers in the so called media, and the professional shark jumpers like Chris Turney still squeal that cold weather is caused by gorebull warming, I’m so confused i’m thinking of heading an expedition, govt funded of course, to actually try to find, and isolate the brain of the liberal. I inherited my grandmothers sewing kit that is full of thimbles so I have the containment components already.

  20. From what I can see, there is a shift in Normal temperatures because the Siberian front is coming straight South instead of North East as is usual. First hitting the Rockies to filter the worst air out. this top down flow has been that way for 2 months now. Hard to dislodge a front like this.

  21. Mikey,
    I saw elsewhere that the WHOLESALE price for electricity in TX topped $5,000/megawatt-hr, which is $5 kWh. Even in Ontario, where our stupid liberal government has saddled us with useless solar and wind power ‘take or pay’ contracts, we’re only paying $0.14 for peak kWh’s. What are you paying on your recent electricity bills?

  22. I see the laughable headline on the G&M website today that “2047 is the “tipping point” for climate change.”
    I am so sick of the propaganda around the fraud of climate change/global warming/climate “weirding” that I could puke.

  23. NO. Abnormal heat is global warming, abnormal cold is global warming, average temps are global warming, idiots stuck in the ice is global warming, the Easter Bunny is global warming, Santa Clause is, well , you get the point.

  25. My rate is locked in at $0.11 per kWh for the next couple of years.
    I am sure they will be doing the same announcement tomorrow as it is supposed to drop to 17 F tonight. Believe me, these are not normal temps for north Texas, and we don’t have the infrastructure to handle it like you Canadians do. My poor heat pump at my house is practically worthless below 30 F at all. It works great at 100 F though… 🙂

  26. I guess I should stop complaining about my outside temperature being a positively tropical 20 F in comparison to the central US temperatures. Of course this event is a totally unpredictable once in a millenium occurrence and the EPA can close down all of the coal powered electrical plants which are spewing deadly CO2 into the atmosphere. Out of curiousity, what is the current level of electricity production from the US bird blenders during this cold snap?
    It will be interesting to see what fraction of the US population still believes in CAGW a month or so from now.

  27. LOL……….. Love TX, lived in Coppers Cove for a few years. It’s 34dge’s in WA state… Been like this for weeks.

  28. The media are studiously avoiding saying global warming. Evon Solomon made a point of asking Braid (infrastructure minister) If the current weather reflects climate change — to the extent that climate changes, of course it does, but silly Solomon decided he had scored a big one. The term “global warming” was at least a more honest concept.

  29. Its been ~76F here in Mesa, AZ. 50’s at night. This is like a Saskatchewan Summer. Only 3 more months of nasty winter in Canada.Buckup!
    Love every minute…
