Would you kindly cross the border, grab your Canadian cold front and
return it to Canada where it belongs?
Thanks - I'd appreciate it.
To us, all the cold crappy weather comes from the US.
If you've ever watched the 'jet stream' on the weather channel, you'll
notice it loups down south from the prairies, cools you off and then comes
back up right over or just a bit to the side of us.

So I say to you......keep the cold front in New England...we don't want it.
Sorry but they don't call it an "artic cold mass" because it came from
the lower 48.
He's a Canadian. Probably thinks all the cold weather comes from
Florida or something.

Besides - it's always Canada's fault.

Blame Canada - that's what I do. :)

Our local weather guesser talks about the Alberta Clipper bringing us
cold weather. My map of North America shows that Alberta is part of
Canada, the source of all cold.


Don is defensive - he is Canadian after all - a lot of be defensive
about. :)

~~ damn - I love busting Don ~~

Reminds me of the trip I took to Kanata, ON about 15 years ago in the
beginning of January. They told me to make sure I bring gloves and wear
them when outside. It was -30*C and below and your skin would freeze to
the door handles.


You know I've done that? Seriously.

Hurt like hell too.



Should have kept your fly zipped.

The winter I visited Thunder Bay, Ontario, it was about that that cold
when we stepped off the airplane. I couldn't believe it. Went ice
fishing the next day. Couldn't believe that, either. It was the place I
saw "professional" roof sweepers, guys hired by homeowners' insurance
companies to sweep the snow off the roofs of policyholder houses.

C-O-L-D.
