November 2010 in the Northern Hemispere

olga--the flowers are pretty in the snow--but hopefully you were not as cold as we were the last couple of days-- we got to around -35 or a few degrees colder, with days below -20..now it is supposed to rise overnigh to -13 by morning, then a high of -4C, it will seem very warm, and friday 0C-i will be putting on my bathing suit
here is a view of my place today...

Cohan,

Well I hope it is at the very least one of the old neck to knee bathing suits, or perhaps a new fashioned tip to toe one made of some sort of insulative material.    While we like the colour blue in the garden, we are not usually intending that blue to BE the forumist, instead of a flower the forumist is looking at.

not to worry, if and when i put on a bathing suit, there will be no witnesses
only -7C now at 1 am, going down to -15...still seems very warm after the last few days...
i saw a newspaper headline from wednesday from calgary, which proclaimed:
" could be worse, but only if you live in antarctica!" i think that day, or another, calgary was the second coldest place on earth, but that's because, ironically, they were having a mild spell in the arctic, and summer in antarctica!

Cohan, thank you for giving me a hope on gardening in more cold climate than mine.   Sometimes it feels here like the end of times but not in November.

i think wherever you live, there are times of bad weather that you feel will never end! today is a hopeful day here, it should get to +2C

It went below -30C in central Southern Norway last night! VERY cold for the time of year. A mere -18C here...
