The Sun is Shining, but it's Darn Cold

To continue with Grandpa's theme, I thought I would share our current situation up in the Great White North, and I do mean white. Last Thursday, we had a big storm move in and just dump on us, then on Saturday morning another system moved in dumping even more snow on us, bringing with it a bitterly cold Arctic high. This came after some wonderful weather that made you excited that winter was almost over. I've heard all across Alberta, record lows have been shattered and even some record low highs (I hope that makes sense). 2 days ago, we broke the low temp at the international airport by 14 degrees making it down to minus 43 Celsius. So while the snow has moved off and it is actually sunny, it's been bitterly cold. Here's some pics to enjoy.
Disclaimer - I realize these are at night but the sun was shining.

Looks like fun! I am glad to see your all still alive and kicking! We just got a little storm yesterday, but not as much as you, bundle up!
