BlueCat....I'm sending you my hot weather!
Alix, I'll take 2 snowmen, 14 snowballs, a birdhouse and a side of icicles. And, can you make that to go?

I have to agree with Alix here, having snow this early is not fun, especially when you have it for six months like they do in Alberta and like we do here in Maine. It's really pretty the first few snow falls, and especially around Christmas, but after that 
it get out of control with the piles and piles of snow, the shoveling, the icy roads. But hey, it's fun to throw snowballs, make snow forts, go sledding, skiing, snowmobiling.

Thats crazy.
Haha!
We've had snow in Ontario, but not enough to stay on the ground. Well in Oshawa at least.

Just an update for jkath. I know you will appreciate that it is currently about 15-20F here and not much hope of it getting warmer before about Thursday. The snow stopped some time Saturday night but we have about 8 inches of the dreaded white stuff.

I'm so green with envy...you have no idea!
Fortunately, there's a slight cloud cover, so it may not get higher than 75 today. And, at least it gets chilly in the evening....

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means...

No snow on the ground here yet, but we have had some snow already (although it's warmed up a bit today...)

Nope, no more 75 degree days here! I think we were supposed to hit the mid 50s today for a high, but it's been cold and rainy here for the last 4 or 5 days.

Rain in October is just sick and wrong. Snow sucks, but rain is just NASTY.

poor chickies!!!
Ronjohn, "chilly" evenings means it hits in the high 40s overnight. I consider that chilly, but not cold.

You can't complain. You live further North than even I do in SSM, MI. You live in The Great White North! Just ask Getty Lee.
I love winter. I just wish all the neighborhood kids weren't grown up so I'd have someone to help me make a monster snowman, and a snow fort worthy of proper snowball fights.
And boy do I miss those teen years riding my 1968 Polaris Mustang with the 389 JLO engine (I think it was 389 CC's

Me too! How come my wife isn't like that? She's a El Cajon, Ca. girl, just about 30 miles East of San Diego. She hates the cold and loves temperatures that melt me.
If the temperature gets much above 75 Fareheight, I start feeling very hot. If it's above 68 in the house, I start sweating. I'm good between 5' to 68'. Below 5' F., I start to feel the cold.

Um...respectfully Goodweed, complaining about the snow and assorted other crappy weather is one of the things we Canadians do best.
I have to take a picture of our back yard. Its covered in snow with green leaves falling all over the snow. Now thats something you don't see everyday.

Alix, I guess you don't want to know that it got up to 76° F. today. But tomorrow it will only be 64 (running away now)
