and stone the bloody crows, baby it's cold outside.
It's getting colder at the official site down near the airstrip, -29 with wind gusts to 67 KPH giving wind chill of -48. Warmer up at the house at -27.4.
All the schools on the coast are closed, some grades are in, some not, in other parts of Labrador and on the Island.
Some wag at Environment Canada has a twisted sense of humor, on the weekend I was checking the 5 day forecast, for of the days one day it read cold wind chills of -42, for the next day extreme wind chills of -45.
Yesterday I did two runs to the gas station, runs on the ski doo that is. Photo shows how I was dressed, not exactly dressed for a day out at Bawley Point eh? Though, going by the forecasts for BP it seems a little on the cool side for January.
Things are toasty and work coming along nicely at the Nain Media Centre. Two more plasterers got in yesterday, so very busy down there with all trades fully at it.

Were they ever able to get a replacement pane for the studio glass at NMC?
AAArg, sound c-c-c-cold.
14C, not bad, we let our house go down to 16C at night, but I guess the difference is that we are snuggled up in a nice warm bed and don't mind the cold.
What's the thingy hanging from the ceiling in the pic?
When you cook and mash the turnip, you mix in some sour cream and some cream cheese, put it all in a pan, poke holes in it, fill the holes with white sauce then sprinkle the top with cheese, and bake in the oven.
mMMMMMMM my favourite! You'll love it.
You wouldn't have to stone the crows, mate. They'd be dead!
Do they actually make temperature gauges that record that low?
PD: It was the whole window, and no sign of the replacement yet, start pulling hair in about 4 weeks if it’s not in by then.
Ex-Sh: You sure that is Scottish from RB era? :-]. Sounds great though, might surprise Fran one night with it, surprise being the operative word.
DB: The crows [raven] here thrive in this weather; bloody things are bigger than a sulfur crested cockatoo.
I think I have answered your other question; mine has not burst into flames yet.
I don't think Robbie had sour cream and cream cheese for his "neeps" back then, but who cares, we're not into authenticity here, we be just eatin' good, man!
PD; correction on the glass replacement. On further consultation it turns out it is only the double pane glass, it is to be framed on installation. Other glass for several doors was also in the dropped shipment.
