Weather WTF

[Admiral Yi]

36 and the snow is melting.

[KRonn]

Temps are going to hit 40 and 50 F later this week, so much of this snow will melt. Plus a welcome relief to the deep freeze.

We're stuck on about 3-5C with often night-time wet and windy fronts coming in off the Atlantic.

Although there's a certain charm over the frozen flooded fields atm.

Extreme cold warning issued to Edmonton.  Windchills will make the temperature like -40.

Does that make you feel tougher while sitting around in your heated office?

Actually my office, with it's big glass windows, gets fucking cold in temperatures like this.

But not as cold as it feel standing for the bus in -40 windchill weather.

I break out the long underwear under my suit for these kind of temperatures - both for in my office and for the bus.

[Admiral Yi]

Very manly of you to wait for a bus in weather like that Beeb.

What do you use for footwear?

[Barrister]

Loafers.

I mean the long underwear you can't see, but I can't get away with not wearing dress shoes for court.

Actually, I remember running a trial in Beaver Creek, Yukon (Canada's western-most community!).  Trial was in the community hall in the middle of winter.  Accused was some kind of "free man" anti-government type.  "Court" was in the community hall/curling rink.  So we had to set up the folding tables to get ready for court.  It was incredibly cold outside.  It was incredibly cold outside, and I remember a mess of moose blood in the snow outside the community hall from some previous event.

Anyways... it was half-way through the trial that I realized that I was still wearing my Sorel boots through the trial, instead of my dress shoes which I had brought.  I apologized to the judge, who just laughed and said I could carry on.

Well, at least you're not surrounded by the People's Volunteer Army 9th Army.

So we might actually get a Winter Olympics where it's.. cold?
