It got hot today! I think it was around 85 here. Leesburg which is a town west of here hit a record 87!

We are going to have double digits tomorrow and it'll rain on Thursday. However, it'll still be mild.

It is very warm and foggy this morning. Another day in the 80's here though it will be cloudy.
It's going to be overcast for the next two days. However, on Saturday ; sun with temps. around 17°C. 
Very pretty, would have better with some sun though- and it's gonna be in the single digits tonight!

I'll take your 17 and put a minus in front of it... -17 C with a windchill of -23 and sunny (that is 1 degree F and -9 F windchill).
We have had a very mild winter, very little snow and then a beautiful freezing cold day like today comes along and reminds us that we do live in Canada.

It is much cooler today with clouds and scattered showers. It is only 62F; yesterday was 85F. Back home it is below zero with wind chills of -40!

Do you mean -40°Celsius? (Could you please remind me, where is it? I mean, your home? I forgot, sorry...) -40°C sounds pretty serious.It is much cooler today with clouds and scattered showers. It is only 62F; yesterday was 85F. Back home it is below zero with wind chills of -40!
We haven't had -40°C, or even -47°C (we had it once!) for quite a long time (the last fierce winter was about 30 yrs ago, and i remember myself having frozen ice on my eyelashes). In my 20s there was only one winter with temps about -28°C, but the others were warmer. Due to the extreme humidity, our temperatures feel a lot colder than the same temps in continental Russia, but still, it's pretty mild in our North-West. It's due to Golfstream. And it will stop some day...

Where I grew up is Minnesota which is one of the coldest states in the US. The minus 40 my cousin posted about was the windchill factor and according to my conversion it is the same in C as in F. The actual temperature was -20F/-29C

Oho... It's still pretty cold, and if there is the "windchill factor" (which i hate),- it's much colder than over here.
(sorry, couldn't help inserting my favourite smiley, "just because"). ...And my converter says the same, lol: -40°C = -40°F.
It's a gorgeous day and the sky is sapphire blue. I'm planning to go for a long walk this afternoon.
