Just got in from walking the dog. Temp is minus 14 C with a strong northerly wind.

Oldest son is flying to Europe from Toronto tomorrow with an hour and
a half stop in Iceland.
Toronto is expecting 15 cm of snow tomorrow and Iceland is expecting
strong winds. Hope he's able to get there without major delays.
The airport in Iceland is a wonderful place to spend an hour or two. He'll enjoy it.

I worked with an Icelander in the Silicon Valley. He said cold as hell,
