What even Edward Snowden could not reveal is…

…that devious Canadian meteorologists have sent this recent cold wave to the States,
so that people in the southern states could finally be trained in low temperature banana
culture

PS:
Meanwhile we have a regular little heatwave up here (at least in the interior of British
Columbia). Today it was +8^C (46^F) and by Monday it is supposed to climb up to
+10^C (50^F). Eat your shivering hearts out down there

Meanwhile sit by the fireplace.

I used Edward Snowden because he is a guy, who has revealed more secrets than
anybody else, I can think of. I certainly do not want this to evolve into a debate
about the impact of his actions, good or bad. That would be a subject for a political
board, and this is not one.

Kinda like 5 days to late was this fellow drunk on Molson since then? :^)

No, Migael, I was actually stone cold sober, at least as far as booze was concerned;
just intoxicated with pleasure, to see you shivering.

But seeing your weather
report ended all that

BTW, your knowledge of Canadian beer is outstanding. You must have studied it.

I always get a laugh when I see a post wondering how many hours it will be below freezing. Because here sometimes I wonder how many weeks it will be below 0ºF.

But, I can't find that data on NASA's websites. But, I know damn well that Dec. 2017 to May 2018 was unusually cold all over the northern hemisphere.

This year, it's been pretty warm, so far.
