Gorgeous weather here in SW Oklahoma. We are enjoying it and grateful for no ice storms and power outage. Begonias and ferns still thriving in the pots, though we have been down as low as 29 degrees F.
How's the Weather ?

@HersheyMint it swung from -20 C to +7 C in 24 hours. It snowed yesterday and then we had freezing rain. Today is very foggy. If you don't like the weather in Alberta, just give it an hour. It'll change!
I'm very grateful for my saintly boys who are blanketed though. Donkey kept his on, but Falcor and my big warmblood stallion got theirs off overnight when it was warm. I ended up having to reblanket them in the evening, in the darn and snow and wind! No halters, both stood like perfect gentlemen.

That is a huge temp difference! Thank goodness it warms up in the day.
I just came back from Utah were the highs were in the 30tys Fahrenheit low temp. was in the 20tys. Back here in California we have a high of 68 F and lows in the 40tys. Sending you some warmth!

Yikes! and I was displeased with like 65 F to 32 F swing pretty much overnight.
I kind of like this following of the tree out my window. We’re getting 6” of snow throughout today. By Christmas Eve it’s to warm up to just above freezing. Currently-20 C.
What kind of tree is that?
Might be a young blue spruce? Some spruce variety anyways.

A peaceful picture to gaze at.
After plenty of really nice weather, we're about to go into a polar vortex. Today, snow squall watch. It's blizzarding outside right now, the wind came up out of nowhere. Interesting weather for sure! It's going to get really cold for the weekend, then back to just below freezing on Monday... Seems like lots of blanket changes are in my future!
Similar here without the snow. We have a few inches on the ground and today is our last mild day of being around 30 degrees. The next three of four days will see temps below zero and windchill numbers at (-30).
So far, we have had a very dry winter.

Yesterday was so interesting! The snow squall was short lived. We had very mild temps and blue sky by noon, but it ramped up again. By 5:00 it was blowing snow and hard to see. That's when I took my daughter in for her boxing class. By 7:30, visibility was nearly not and it was a slow drive home. Fortunately, the road conditions (when you could see it) were quite good! We made it home without issue. This morning there's snow and things are very quiet. It's about to get cold! Better double blanket the ponies!
