It is -27C (-16.6F) here today, so I do NOT want to hear anyone whine about how cold it is where they are (unless it's colder than here, in which case you have every right to). That stands especially true for you thin blooded Israelis who recently complained that it was only 2C (35.6F). Boo hoo for you, I can only dream of what it's like to have balmy temperatues of 2C.

UPDATE: in case you were wondering... yes, it CAN get colder. It's now -35C (-31F). I wouldn't mind the cold so much if only there was snow. Where is my snow!?!?
