Portions of northeastern Ontario (at the same latitude as southern
England), about a six hour drive north of Toronto, are experiencing
extreme cold far worse than that "down south" where I live. Last night
"up north" the low was minus 35C. The high today will only be aroud
minus 25C. The low tonight will approach minus 35C again with a minus
40 or lower windchill.

When the weather is this cold, ice crystals fill the air.

Southern Ontario rarely gets this cold.

Oh I hate you Bob :-)

Seriously, I'm really really jealous! Canada sounds fantastic, you get
warm dry summers too.

I checked out the website and saw the pictures of central Canada in
early April and Nottingham, England in early April. Where I live
between latitude 44 and 45 in Ontario, we never have deep snow in
early April. Nevertheless, my garden and lawn, though not covered in
snow, is lifeless this early in the spring.

Yeah, I like the variety of weather here. I'm glad that it does not
get as cold as northern areas, but we get a taste of the arctic
throughout the winter.
The summer is sunny and warm with an average mid-summer high of 26C
and a low of 16C. On occasion it will get above 32C which is fine with
me. Humidity can be high if there is a persistent southwest breeze off
of the Great Lakes.

It gets pretty cold at night nearly everywhere between 10 and 30
degrees north and that's almost surrounded by sea.

Only if you're 20,000 feet up!

I like the sound of your winters, but those summer temperatures are a
little too warm for me.

I suppose that's the compensating factor of our drab winters in NW
Europe, at least spring comes early - don't fancy waiting until well
into April for spring to arrive...
I guess the worst possible thing that could happen is to be mild and
wet until mid February, and *then* cold and wet (but not cold enough
for snow), delaying spring.
