I am so glad that I don't need to go outside today, it's nasty! When I got up this morning, the actual temp was 4 degrees and the wind chill was minus 20 degrees below zero. I think my fingers are starting to form icicles.  |

| In all this, the scientists are preoccupied with global warming. How about if the planet is slowly sneaking away from the Sun? That's the only sensible explanation that they should be awaken to soon. |

I've heard numerous people say this over the last week or so... the fact
that there's so much talk about global warming and here's this arctic
freeze that seems to go against all that. |

That's fine as a joke. But you do realise that by disrupting global weather patterns so-called global warminbg will of course make som places even colder. And that warming doesn;t stop usual variation or prevent winter from happening.
If we do nothing about it until the whole place is tropical it will be juuuuust a little too late. |

Yes, I realize that... when it's -30 below, it's difficult to think about global warming but sure some places will be even colder. It certainly seems to be proving that fact this year, doesn't it? |

We may finally be starting to pull out of the deep freeze. It's actually supposed to get up to 20 degrees today... wow! The sun decided to show up, too... maybe spring IS around the corner!  |

| How many degrees you have their schatzi? At night in our country we experience up to 24 degrees and its too cold for us. I can't imagine of some countries experiencing lower than 24 degrees. They might freeze of cold. |

| We have at the moment 2-8 degrees at daytime and below zero at night. But at home we have 22 degrees and in sleeping room is 14 degrees. This is ideal for a comfortable sleep. |

| I hope you can share to me the coldness of your place. It's hot here like summer. It only rained twice a week. |
