So if any of you didnt catch the forcast for the PLANET!! I just happen to be where this "weather anomoly" is taking place, yeah the COLDEST place on the entire GLOBE is to pass through today/tomorrow. Like WTF Greta what are we to do?!?!? Im not saying its "fake news" but even worse than Antarctica ............. seriously. Happy collecting ................. NUT ICICLES!!!!

stay warm brother!! guess now is a good time to scour the net and get that wish list going. not to pour salt on an open wound, but the temp did drop from the 90's to the mid 70's this past few days :-( thats chilly to us here 

How did you sneak into the house to take that!!! I should call the cops!!! LOL

That's my kind of weather. I might even put the fan on low! 

Above 75 is too hot for me. I don't mind the cold. I just dress warmer. Or now I can just stay home, since I'm retired.

I "think" I am WAY south of all you guys posting above me and it has gotten cold here. My veggie garden is officially done after Friday night's deep freeze! Those plants lasted over a month longer than usual. My veggie garden is usually dead and cleaned out at some time in early October. The remaining plants were still alive after the light-freeze from the previous cold front a week ago. They are all dead now and it's too cold for me to want to go pull them up and put the support poles/cages away for the winter.

The weather has been kinda crazy here in NC the past couple of weeks. I went to Martinsville,VA for a NASCAR race on 10/27 and the high temp was 81F! That was the warmest day for an M'ville race since April 2004! But my last time there in October 2017 was very cold with a high temp around 38F. Around here, November should average high temps around 58-60F. Friday was about 50F in mid-morning and cooling throughout the day. Saturday got no higher than 48F. It does look like a warm-up for Sunday and Monday. But then we have a chance of snow flurries Tuesday. It has only snowed 5 times in November in central NC over the past 115 years! Autumn (or Fall) never happened here this year. We went straight from Summer to Winter in a couple of weeks!

As one who was born and lived in Manitoba for many years I think I understand very well your pain.... Many a day going to school in the throes of the "Prairies weather grip" the mercury would find itself south of -30-35C (w/o any wind) but I don't recall it being this early on the calendar. As you well know, it's either stay indoors or bundle up. Hopefully that anamoly will pass quickly.
