I think it could have been 12 here on Monday, but it is up and down a lot. I'm in Toronto.

This winter there has been a LOT more snow than all the previous winters. But I do think the temperatures are higher, far less really cold days.

A mixed bag here. Since the New Year we've had some days at over +10 and some at -25, not including wind chills. Then again, we've already had the second-snowiest winter since records began in 1938 and may well break the record set in 1970 (I hope not:ohmy:).

It's been consistently above freezing for about a month now. Even in January it would get above 0 most days.

The odd thing is how dry it's been. We only had half the average amount of precipitation in February, and below average in January too.

It has been rather cool in Winnipeg this winter.

You had a high of +2.9C on the 6th of January and that is it.;)

If you ever want to check daily highs and lows just go to this website pick a month, year and in the bottom box choose "Daily" then click on a city. :)

Couple of days have been above zero since Christmas; we're supposed to have highs above zero most of next week too.

It has been beautiful here in Victoria the past couple of days +11 sunny and the cherry blossems are now in bloom (my favorite time of year here) rows of beautiful pink trees.
