Hope you don't wake up to a sheet of ice out there tomorrow. :) Very unlikely. We are in a very mild sector right now. It's 8C at 9:30pm. I think the next time we will see freezing temps is boxing day onwards. We suffer big variations in our weather here as we are a relatively small island surrounded by lots of warm water!

We also have that situation because we have what is known as a micro climate here. In other words we can and usually do have three to five different weather patterns here in the same day.

Happy W I N T E R S O L S T I C E everyone Did anyone celebrate the Solstice? Some friends and I were going to go out and build a fire on Wreck Beach and dance, sans-clothes, around it but since there is a foot of snow on the ground and it is -8Ã‚Â°C we decided to hold off on the Wicca rituals. Instead, we huddled around the Ã¢â‚¬Ëœmodern camp-fireÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ (the television) and sipped nog. Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. Albert Einstein ID: 843286 ·
