It's So Cold...

How cold is it?

It's so cold that you have to go north to get warm. That's right! This morning we had colder temperatures than Uranium City where we used to live. In fact from Uranium City north all the way to Alert (as far north as you can go in Canada) was about -25 C. (That's 11 below F.) Here it was -31 (That's about 24 below F.) There were no colder temperatures in Canada except in the Yukon. Whitehorse was the same as here but in central Yukon it was about -42 (F. and C. are the same at 40 below). Even southern B.C. (Penticton) was cold for down there, being about 0 degrees F.

The car has been weathering OK. Thanks in a large part to our attached garage. We warm it up for about 10 minutes. It takes a few more minutes, driving down the road, to actually warm up.

It's so cold that yesterday and today most of the installers for Peace Windows did not work.

It's so cold that some water lines at work frose up. I opened the cabinet under the sink to let in some warmer air and they eventally thawed out.

It's so cold that when Colleen and I stopped at "Tim Horton's" for a bowl of hot chili, we could not get any because their water heater had blown up!

It's so cold that at the school across the street most people have left their vehicles running this evening (even with the high cost of fuel).

It's so cold that it acutally got colder during the day. This afternoon it dropped to -33. (28 below F.) Tonight won't be much colder but the wind chill will make it like -45 (50 below F.). However help is on the way. Over the next couple of days things should warm up to normal, somewhere between 0 C. and 0. F. It will feel like the banana belt!

Here's some more:

It's so cold bears are using electric blankets.
It's so cold a coyote tried to buy jumber cables.
It's so cold a hitch hikes was seen holding out a picture of his thumb.

And with that...

It's so cold its time to hibernate!

brrrrrr - That's cold!
It's been colder than "normal" here also, although not near as cold as it is where you are. Wouldn't it be nice if this was the last winter on earth for God's children? Come, Lord Jesus!
 
I just watched Al Goar talk about global warming on Oprah today. He mentioned that the results could be like a walk through the book of Revelation. Maybe the end is nearer than we think. Evem so Come Lord Jesus. P. S. This Sunday I'll be preaching is a little country church (on Heaven) so uphold me in prayer.
