Cold in the Morvan too. First thing this morning -9° C. with wind chill -17° C Sunny now and warmed up to -4° C. cold again tomorrow. For someone who lived in California for 22 years I still find it hard to adapt to the cold weather. As a child in England I do remember the 1962-1963 winter, no fun using the outside loo that winter. Well I guess its time to throw another log on the wood burner, stay warm everyone.
6 years ago we had the "vague de froid". We had a mild winter and then the first of Feb it snowed. The following day the temperature plummeted. For two weeks it didn't get above -15 during the day (-25 at night)!
I remember that winter I had frozen water pipes even though they where under ground.
