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).

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.

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.
