I myself was without electricity for three weeks in the freezing cold...thankfully a week into it I was able to stay at a friend's house who for whatever reason, had power all the way through. Thinking on it later on, it was kind of fun, for me at least, but during the ordeal it was a pain in the a**. Beautiful pictures augenauf...
Ice storms are soooo pretty but it is horrible for travel. School was canceled for me AGAIN today because the roads aren't cleared yet. xD

I don't know about the weather in Canada, but I'm going to guess it gets colder up there since it's farther north, particularly inland.

Not that it's always warm here. -gonks- X_X; I can remember days where 15*F seems like a beautiful day after all of the -15*F days... January is horrible. D;

((PS, TG, thanks for the conversion. I don't know anything about Celcius other than the obvious, like zero degress is freezing. I've only ever used Celcius in chemistry, and that does no good as far as getting a feel for the numbers.))
