How cold is it where you are?

[Glacier]

Are you north of the Arctic Circle, Tamara?

Where are you originally from, and how long have you been up there?

No, I'm south of the Arctic Circle, although I could drive there! It does go through the Yukon. The Circle is the 66th parallel; I live at about the 61st; sub-arctic climate zone and below the tree line! There are no trees up at the Circle!

I grew up in Saskatchewan, moved all over Alberta & Saskatchewan for a few years, met Stuart in Calgary. We moved up here in January 2000.

It's been in the 50's here for the past few days as the high but tomorrow it's supposed to be 65 as the high and on Friday it's supposed to be 69 as the high and only get down to about 45 for the low. I know I'm very spoiled living in CA.

It's a weird day temperature wise here in Butler. Currently it's 64F (in january yet!) with rain and thunderstorms on tap for most of the day,and this evening the temp will plunge down to (Brrrr!) 29F with snow showers coming. A roller coaster winter for sure!!

Now it's 55, rainy, and we're on a tornado watch. Ugh.

Today, today is melting day
The snow has sadly gone away
The ground still frozen, so water stands
Mud awaits to any who dare tread
Today, today is melting day
All the snow, bit by bit
Has gone away.

It was 58 yesterday morning. All the snow from our pre-Christmas blizzard was gone.
Today it's 22 and dropping, and we have six inches of fresh, blowing snow.

Yesterday and today it has felt like early Spring. That comes to a screeching halt later today with high winds, thunderstorms, rain, and dropping temps back into the 30's. It was so balmy that I was out with Myndi for her potty break at 4 a.m., with no jacket on - just my jammies, slippers and robe!
