    Walking home tonight and my breath was fogging, it was that cold. Really gloomy, too. You'd think it was Autumn except for the daffodils and that.

    But heatwave forecast next week. Then you'll all be complaining it is too warm.

    Is that the same "heatwave" we were promised would start on Wednesday, then moved to this weekend, now possibly next week ?

    All I want is some Sun. I don't mind if it's cold, I just need cheering up.

    This weekend's forecast for Toronto and S. Ontario: 20mm freezing rain, then snow and ice pellets, 60 - 80 km/hr winds. Spring feels a long way off
