"unhoused" is the word they want you to use now. Makes everyone feel a whole lot better apparently.

Thank Hell for my beautiful Alberta pumped natural gas is all I have to say! I'm burning wood as well for the added ambient heat. I'm doing everything I can to contribute to Global warming! I'd take +40 any day in a survival situation over -40. At least at +40 I can be comfortable naked and sleep in a tent outside under the shade of some trees.

Make sure to plug your EV in.

Today wasn't too bad dropping the kids off to school I must say. Plugged the SUV in, so it started fine. The only thing I like better with my EV is how fast it gets hot. Takes like 3-4 minutes to get kike a sauna in there lol

Would you guys rather have -40 or +40? I would take -40 truthfully. I hate extreme heat.

Can always put on more layers. can only take off so many. I'll take cold over heat for sure.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

We started a small tire fire in the back to help.

Bad day for our septic system to crap out.

When I used to run I ran in temps like we have today. I doubt I ran in -40 as we haven’t seen it that cold in decades.

 

[Da McBomb]

Well..... if you just ignore the bitter -40 temperature, it is actually very beautiful out there right now.. clear blue skies, little wind, beautiful white landscape??? lol

Sorry to hear. Unfortunately, it seems it's typically weather like this that brings on issues.

I'm waiting for my garage door springs to snap one of these freezing cold days. Usually every 2-3 years, so I'm due.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Was -47 here last night... went out super early this morning to take some pics of the ice fog in the air and to say that "I've been outside and felt what it's like at -47" because I don't know how often I'll be able to "experience" that type of extreme weather.

+40 didnt even hesitate with this answer. -40 i feel most depressed when the weather gets this cold. I dont even feel like walking down to the corner to get my mail. If its too cold to the point that people are complaining their vehicles wont start even when plugged in then yeah Fxxk that -40 shit.
