Many Canadians aren’t used to this degree of cold either; these are subarctic temperatures. At home in the Okanagan it doesn’t get much colder than -5C, so it’s a lot warmer.
Yes. About -18C (-1F) right now, but it will go down to -30C (-22F) in the next month. It IS beautiful and people who love outdoor winter activities really enjoy it here.
We are at about -18C (-1F) and we have had a bit of up and down, but it’s definitely beginning to settle into temperature drop-off now. It will get a lot colder!
Thank you very much. We are getting at least some snow every day, so it’s collecting at a rapid rate, and the north is so beautiful in the winter. Glad to hear that you’re getting that festive feel!
I used to live in southern Alberta, in Medicine Hat, and I usually experienced 2-3 weeks of -35 in late December and early January. Here it goes on for much longer and it’s much more intensely cold. -45 isn’t unusual in the subarctic. Breathing in that cold air is an experience. The lungs get a bit of a shock!
Beautiful. Feels so still… 🙂
It was. No wind, just quite cold at -18C. It will get a lot colder in the next month or so.
Oh dear that’s cold, for us in the UK anyway. Take care and stay warm 🙂

Nice post
Thank you very much. 🙂
Winter has put it’s pretty on, Lynette. Love the sunny hoarfrost days. Happy Monday, indeed. Allan
Yes, it has. Winter is the north’s best season. It is at its most beautiful and intriguing (and dangerous, too) in my opinion.
It is beautiful but so cold!

Yikes! I better stay here, enjoy your white beauty from afar!
Sometimes a photo will do!
It’s finally getting cold here, sort of. Bring on the snow.

Very pretty, but you can have it all to yourself.
Are you sure you don’t want some? 😉
Hahaha. No, thanks, that’s okay.

What are you driving, there? Must have good ground clearance –
An F150. The clearance is pretty good, but those ruts look somewhat deeper than they actually were.
WOW! Wonderful.
Thank you very much! 🙂
What a beautiful picture. It looks like a winter wonderland. We got some fresh snow this weekend and it’s definitely starting to feel festive.

Wintry and fresh! I have experienced -35c in Alberta and vividly recall how strange it feels to breathe in such cold air.

It is so beautiful and snowy there! Great picture!
Thank you very much. 🙂 Yes, it is and becoming more so every day!
