How's The Weather?


Just curious what kind of weather you guys are having. I'm in Toronto, and today I was outside cutting trim with no jacket or hat under a sunny sky. The temp. went up to 11 degrees celcius, that's about 52 degrees American!

Re: How's The Weather?


Ya' know, all this talk about the nice weather we're having up north is going to put a hex on us all. It'll probably start snowing next week, snow for a month, and we'll start breaking records for low temperatures.

Re: How's The Weather?


California - centralish

During the day it was mid 60s. Light rain falling now. Has been 'cold' (40s to low 50s) in the mornings. Its been raining lightly about once a week.

Perfect weather for redoing the grading in the backyard by hand and prepping for a small lawn. The soil is not baked hard butnot muddy and is easy to work - the morning weather is perfect for shovlin and movin dirt around.

It's been around 30-40 here which has been terrible. Snow some days, rain , freezing rain. There is no snow on the ground to go skidooing, lakes are full of puddles on top of the ice, no hockey. Its been a really terrible mild winter, now I am looking forward to the spring, business season.
