the waterfall in my pond is still running (last year by this time I think it was frozen solid).

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.

That's good to hear! I'll be back in Toronto for the week before Xmas, I hope it stays warm! It was been fairly warm in NS too (aside from 1 week of hard freezes). Today I even mowed the lawn! :lol: We're supposed to get 1 cm of snow tomorrow, but then temps will be back around 8 C or so.

not so for Western Canada:
Same thing every year.

People in Toronto golfing end of November (envy) and the Okanagan has a blizzard and -5C.
Damn arctic outbreaks...wish Alaska would hold on to them.

But this morning, the mild "Hawaiian Express" went further north in BC.
So Fort Nelson was zero C this morning while we were -5C.
:?

Global weirding.

Barb- Don't be too angry. It is, right now, 1C with a wet snow/rain mix. I would MUCH rather have -1C and snow than this crap. Oh, but if it warmed up to 12C the rain would be preferable! (I changed my weather preferences: worst weather is between 0C and 11C and rain, then really cold, then snow, then mild/warm rain!).

I rememebr our December 2010 was way low in temps too here in South Jersey. This year it is totally the opposite like you.
