Hey Winter...SIT ON IT!

Winter has officially moved into Lethbridge...and it's pissed. Overnight, we got about 7 inches of snow, and it doesn't look like it's planning on slowly down any time soon. The snow isn't the bad part...that is expected. The subzero temperatures on the other hand are ridiculous! I went to bed lastnight at about 2:00 AM, and the temperature was a chilling -22° C, which was lame enough... However, I woke up at 4:45 to go to the bathroom, and I checked the temp...To my disbelief, it was -32°C! Now that's not unheard of, but you have to remember that's -32° without a windchill... And Lethbridge is notorious for it's retardedly high winds, and lastnight did not disappoint. By Morning it was about -27°...but atleast the wind had died down... The weather better get it's act together before Friday morning... If I have to stand outside for a 4 and a half hour lab in this, I am going to be so pissed off...or dead, which ever comes first...

If this is what winter in Lethbridge is gonna be like, I'm not looking forward to the next 4 months of it... :S


And that's my rant about winter...

Fricken wind and cold together are really making this season not so fun. Didn't most people say that Lethbridge is warm?...But then...no matter where you go right now, it's cold. Could be worse. Edmonton was about -42 the other day, and people were told to stay inside and not even go for groceries.

Christopherrrr!!! Child's play compared to Shaunavon Come aaaan.

I talked to my Mom the other day and she was sayin it got to -37°(w/ w/c).

But on the other hand, once it gets past -20°, it doesn't really matter anymore, because anything past that is just too fuckin cold.
