Is The End Near

Winter just doesn't want to release it's icy grip on us this year. Some winter activities are enjoyable, but there are a number of things you can't do when you perish from cold every time you step outdoors. When the cold temperatures hang in there, it makes it miserable for anyone living in this type of climate.

For the 1st week of March, we in the Peg should be experiencing the onset of spring like weather, but with evening temperatures hovering around -30C, spring seems so far away. It is depressing when compared to other years.

This has been a long, extremely cold winter with no end in sight yet. Mountains of snow haven't even started to thaw and there is more snow in the forecast. Will it end with a sudden warming trend and cause the greatest flood Manitoba has seen in 700 years? One thing is for sure, by the 1st day of summer that question will have been answered.
