Nice :) I love that feeling but will have to wait a while longer where I am. Right now it's still very much a feeling of winter here. This past weekend was extremely cold and windy (-29C with wind chill felt like -45C). Today isn't as cold but still very windy (-6C with wind chill -16C) and it's been snowing heavily non stop since last night (around 16 inches of snow so far). ...that feeling when you don't even mind...

How are the polar bears down there this time of year?

We have had a sh1t winter this year. I can recall two spells of snow that lasted about 30 minutes and didn't stick. Even frost has been a rarity.

I agree with you about spring btw.

it's been crazy here too. its been consistently above 0 for the past month - some t shirt weather days, which is unheard of for February. One golf course opened up yesterday already. it's absurd. im hoping I can still go to the rink a few more times before everything melts but idk it may already be at that point.

Feeling that here in southern BC too, last year we all started camping in April, this year we're going to start even earlier.

You guys are lucky, it's been absolutely disgusting on the opposite coast. We've been hit with more snow this month than we saw in total from November to January.

It'll be 60F here on Friday. I'd get out for a round of Disc Golf but there's supposed to be 50 mph gusts along with that. Throwing into the wind with that velocity is an exercise in futility... and how to lose all your discs.

Unlucky mate, aren't you from Canada?

Na, I enjoy a good winter and I think a lot of people here do. I still get excited when it starts to snow and it sticks. I don't want so much that commuting and getting about becomes troublesome (to be fair this is always a bit of an issue in the UK if even 1 inch of snow sticks) but enough so that you can enjoy the season and it actually feels like winter. I like dressing for the cold and being outdoors in it, and how much better everything looks when it's snowed.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 02-17-2016 12:55 PM

It can be pretty, but aside from that I can't stand it. Not a fan of the cold either so that's probably a big reason why.

I live in the city and snow in the city becomes disgusting after about an hour. Thumbs down to snow for me.
