Default Crispy cold this morning (-40 and not wind chill!)

Pierre, thanks for your reply !! It's great to hear they have so much snow.
We are staying at the Auberge Estrimont. It should be great. Thanks.

Hank:

Sorry about the delay...was out of town...

Mount Orford and Mount Orford are in the Eastern Townships of Québec,

about
a 3 hour drive east from here, just north of the New York and New

Hampshire
borders. Temps are a bit *milder*, which in the case of below 30 deg.

temps
is not much, but they do have a load more snow than we do...we have about

15
inches on the ground, and they have at leat 2.5 to 3 feet.

Currently here at my place, we have light snow falling (visibility about 4
kms - about 2.5 miles) with an air temp of -18 deg. C (0 deg F), but no

wind
tonight. Expecting about 3-5 cms (1 to 2 inches). Very small flakes...

Have a good trip!

Bon voyage.

Pierre

Hey all...

Another cold one this morning here in southern Quebec. 8am minimum
thermometer reading of -40C (-40F) and with the sunrise, up to a

balmy -39C.
At least its sunny out and no wind yet, but we should be getting some

steady
nothernly winds up to 20 or 30 kph later this morning, so more

horrendous
wind chills this afternoon. Time to throw another log on the

fire....and
to
think, that in about 4 months from now, I'll be swimming in the lake

(which
currently has almost 70 cm of ice thickness! ...about 30 inches...I
think...)

Pierre
