Well, it has warmed up to -27*C (-17*F) this morning. We are in the middle of a freezing snap.....which usually means no snow for a few days. I had to shovel out my bedroom window yesterday, we couldn't see out of half of it.

Awwwwww Tamara winter must have decided to just come your way this year.
We're having spring here right now, 47* F - or 8*C. And NO WIND today imagine that. So guess what I did this morning, I washed my windows, it was perfect weather to do this.
Kindness is a language the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
I have heard about shoveling out windows but I'm kind of glad that I haven't had to do it. Right now it would be beyond me anyway. We have a lot of rain headed our way. We need it but the areas that were recently burned are in danger of mudslides and flooding without the growth to hold it on the hillsides. We personally are in pretty good shape as far as our hillsides I think. I am so looking forward to the rains. We are expecting in this one rainy period of 3-4 days about twice as much rain as we got all year last year. It is much needed.

It was -5 this morning here, but the town over from me was -25 where did they have their thermometer , in the river It only got up in the 20,but suppose to be in the 40 tomorrow and Jan thaw on its way for Sunday. Can't wait. At least we will get a break from snowfall for a few days. Not as much snow as Tamara though. Haven't had to shovel out the windows yet
I am strong when I am on your shoulders, you raised me up to be more than I can be.
It's going to hit about 9*C mon and tues, maybe even into the teens, and we just had -20*C windchills a few days earlier!

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee
it is between 68* & 70* F here today---alternating between being slightly sunny & a bit cloudy. sounds nice but it will just make the cold all that much harder to deal with when it comes back
although the DH did use this day to take down our outside Christmas display stuff--

Yes this is wonderful for January. I love it I am going to go out and walk around the gardens. It will probably shock the plants but my old bones are loving the heat.
Well for begin in Jan, are's is great yesterday it was up at 70 in temps and today is a just like yesterday boy it is nice to but we are having wind's later maybe rain
The "orb" in the picture is not a paranormal sighting...it's the reflection of the light in the living room because I was too lazy to walk outside and take the picture. I took it through the window.
Cindy--it is still a beautiful picture !!!

What a picture....love it....but I do wish I had your weather, though it's 30* here right now we do not have any snow and none coming in the near future.

Here in Pennsylvania it broke a record , from 1946 .............We don't care. No snow and we were outside without coats..........Whoops .. was one tulip coming up............
I cut off some rose bushes to try to root inside in soil.........
I cant believe Cindy has our weather......Just what she needed.
reached 14*C today, I think that's in the 60*Fs melted most of the snow. Another warm day tomorrow

Rain is not a good thing though, it has no where to go. The ground is absolutely frozen. It will just sit there until it freezes. Guess we'll be skating in the driveway

30*F here right now. It was 43 on Sunday and that was very nice for us this time of year! We went out and made a snowman and actually got too warm for our gear so had to take some off!! It was great! Down into the 20s by the weekend. I won't complain about that either. It is better than the -10 that we were having!
We hit 69 today, and 70 yesterday----broke records here too Barb! I'm not complaining at all, the rest of the week is all downhill until we are back to the 30's.
BTW, LOTS of my bulbs are poking up ALREADY! Sure hope they make it okay.
