The temperature is always relative.  Someone I knew at the local library was from Minnesota where temperatures in the winter often fall thirty or forty below zero and was not fazed by single digits temperatures.

This week the temperatures were in the twenties and thirties and I thought we had a minor heat wave although keeping the house heated for over two days by our coal stove had something to do with that.

It became down right toasty in our house and I had to discard my thermal underwear.  And other extra layers.  It always depends what temperature is normal for that time of year.

I am starting to count the weeks of winter that have gone by.  It is still too early for my yearly countdown to spring.  But it is getting there.
