Brrrrrrr!! Time for temps??

Well one good thing about the lower temps in Western Canada is possibly the slowing down of the Mountain Pine Beetle's march East. BC has lost millions of trees to this tiny pest and it is quickly on the move into Alberta and beyond.

I'm in Chilliwack, BC and according to my thermometer outside its currently -4C but I am sure there is a wind chill. Seems to be warming up a bit.

I was lucky and never lost any power during recent storms.

Yeah, that is a good thing. I recently drove from Vancouver to Calgary for the first time in about 5 years and couldn't believe how much the devastation has spread in that short of a time. In some places as far as the eye could see and up to 90% loss. Terrible!
