Western Canada is freakin cold right now
 

Shop is heated and it's toasty warm inside, but I just took the carb off my stroker and took it outside to drain the bowls. I can't believe how cold it is here right now. This morning it's -21F and it's not ideal for standing outside draining fuel from float bowls. Back into the shop I will stay now.

try sticking your tongue on a chain link fence :)

I don’t think so Fred. But the Baileys is working well in my coffee here

Woke up to blowing, drifting snow yesterday in Victoria. Very unusual here. The hummingbirds stay here year-round, so they're a little perturbed!

People wonder why I talk with a lisp :)

We're @ 4 degrees below freezing in S. Ontario today, balmy compared to the '3 Dog Nights' you Westerners are experiencing.

I've had about enough of this crap already. Just went to the speed shop to pickup some parts and didn't go anywhere else. Straight there...and a b-line back home.

move south to Minnesota -30 and snow the last 2 weeks

Yeah...but we got beaver. And beer!

It’s really cold...

I thought you guys are supposed to be used to cold weather ?
You live in Canada, EH !!

Yeah, normally we are. But this year we've had squat for snow and throughout December and January we've been skiing in t-shirts with 40+ degree temps for the most part.

Right up until February hit. Ouch!

For the southerners in the crowd.

Out scales meet at minus 40

In Calgary we get a weather phenomenon called a Chinook
During the 1988 winter Olympics we had a 100 degree Fahrenheit temperature change in 24 hrs.
When the coastal wind blows it brings that weather inland hundreds of miles.
The greatest change recorded was from minus 54F to plus 49F in 24 hrs

When we get asked how we live here.....we bundle up

When I'm in AZ and it's 110 at midnight.....I can't take anymore clothes off and get cool

At least it’s a sunny dry cold...

Oh, and how did I make that photo so HUGE?
