Winter came and went

In Edmonton this week we had winter for three days, and now its gone. We have had an exceptionally warm November. In fact it was warmer than July according to Environment Canada.

For three days this week starting on Monday we had -20 c with a windchill of
-29 c, and snow.

As of Thursday we have had double digit highs at the opposite end of the scale hitting +19 c. And the snow is gone. Today as I write we are at +11 c. The forecast is more of the same for the next week before Xmas.

Some much for Winter it came and went. We are now as warm as we get in the Spring.

But wait it's still only Fall. Winter does not officially start until Solstice, December 21. Ah sigh, well one can dream he said humming "To Dream the Impossible Dream".
