Cold Cold Cold

It has been very cold here which, I guess, goes hand in hand with the unusual amount of snow.  For the past three years it has rained a lot here and the temperature in the winter has hovered around 32 degrees F (0 Celsius).  The first year we were here we thought our thermometer was broken since the temperature didn't vary much in the winter and it never really got that cold.  Jason and I used to say, "imagine what it would be like if it was just a little colder and all this rain became snow?".  Well, now we know.  It is cold and snowy every day!!  It seems there is a snow flurry every day and today the temperature was down to -16 celsius (3 degrees F).  Today was a run day for me so I bundled up and went for my run but the first 20 minutes or so were not pleasant.  By the end of my run I had warmed up but I did have frost on my eyelashes and eyebrows.  I hope this cold snowy patch comes to an end soon!
