What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Glad we stuck with Fahrenheit! By the way, -31 C = -23.8 F. That is really cold!
I don't think I've ever felt below 0 F. 10 degrees F is plenty cold. (Doesn't often get that cold here, but spent ten days in Baltimore once around Xmas time, and stayed about that cold. Miserable! Gotta wear several layers, scarf, gloves, etc.)

Yup, -31/-23.8 is a bit nippy. But Canadians are tough stuff.
We got within 2 degrees of that last Tue-Thur, but by Sat, had a 70 degree swing the other way.

Ya know, all my life, these cold snaps were called “Alberta Clippers”. But the Alberta Tourism Council felt they were being scapegoated . Not only that, they thought they were being blamed unfairly. So they bribed all of the American weather reporters to call it something else. That’s why this cold snap was called a “Polar Vortex”.
See how it sounds scary and sciency and stuff? And instead of blaming our friends to the north for the snotsicles in our beards, we can only blame polar bears.
 
Woke up to some white stuff this morning...

Went to the Oklahoma panhandle to hunt once. Was warm early in the week,t-shirt warm. Then Wednesday temps dropped from 50°f at 9 am to 23°f at 3pm with snow blowing in sideways. The rancher whose land we was on called it a "blue norther".
