    With various winter weather across the country over the last week, which do you prefer

    Bone Chilling Cold

    A Big Snowfall

    Wind and Rain but warmer temps


    I know some of you lucky people are retired or do not work, so think a day when you have to leave the house

    We had a saying in our group of friends we'd shout out team building events when I was in my teens: "Fire in your hearts, Ice in your veins!"
    ...and as a born and bred Canadian through and through, I do indeed have ice in my veins...I guess that's why I bleed Toronto Blue and White...
    I LOVE WINTER, all of it!...the ice, the snow, the cold, the windchill...LOVE IT!

    I work indoors, and don't spend too much time outdoors in the winter unless we go quading/ice fishing. I guess I prefer the bone-chill cold as long as there is not too much wind. I hate tracking lots of snow in the house, and the melt-freeze-melt-freeze that leaves a ton of ice on the roads. DH gave me a heated jacket with a battery pack to handle the cold.

    Prefer LOTS of snow! We don't have much this year.

    Mind you, on a day like today which began with a -47 windchill (too cold even for me) - there is something to be said for the beautiful blue sky and amazing sun that come with the bone-chilling cold.

    We don't get rain in winter... that's just weird.

    We are supposed to get lots of rain this week. As long as it isn't freezing rain, I don't mind it but if the temps drop right after = skating rink streets

    Rain. Rain. Rain. Growing up in BC, that's all I knew. Been in Ontario for 16 years now and can't get used to the cold and the snow. I hate it! And the older I get the harder it is for me to warm up in the winter. That's why I love the humidity in the summer. Summer is when I finally get a chance to defrost.
