A Shout Out To SPRING!!!

Complaint: Winter in Winnipeg – often Winnipeg is noted for breaking records as the coldest city in Canada. If you were a polar bear this would be an exotic vacationland.

Upside: Though the winters are cold, there is a lot of sunshine. This is wonderful – a gift some might say.

Further on the upside of Winnipeg and it’s climate – Winnipeg has GORGEOUS Springs. The green grass, fresh scent of budding plants and trees, little rain (though I imagine not everyone is happy with that – sorry farmers). And, no bugs – at least not for a couple more days – weeks.

Today, I sheepishly admit, that I am happy to be living in Winnipeg . . . today.

What’s the climate like where you are?

Well, it was snowing yesterday in Yellowknife, if that gives you any idea :)

The winters are looooooong and cold and dark. The summers are short, but very bright and sunny. On the longest day of the year the sun never really goes down, giving us around 18 or 19 hours of sunlight and 5 or 6 hours of dusk.
