Cold enough for you?

[farmaholic]

Kinda feel sorry for the livestock and their owners. I guess it's bearable out of the wind. And to think we were dumb enough to try and calv cows in this type of weather this time of year.

Its good weather to aerate rusty grain beetles.

We have to remember where we live and it was only a matter of time before we got the Arctic blast.

Thank goodness for that energy rich packed natural gas, fuel oil, hydrocarbons. I'm sure SaskEnergy will be setting consumption records again.

Stay warm, travel safe and take care.......its outright dangerous out there.

Hey do not feel bad for me or my sheep. It is great and invigorating doing chores these days. Sheep are tough. Also been snaring coyotes, and there is something about the cold air that I love. I also note how quiet an peaceful it is outdoors. No one else is moving, so it is so quiet and calm.

I am not normal, I love this weather.

I guess if no man or beast is shivering....then no need to feel sorry.

A good dose of cold(understatment) outside air is better than 24 hours a day seven days a week of old stale house air.

I saw this on Twitter from Brad Wall today. Any other sayings that should be outlawed when it is this cold?
Take care and Happy New Year.

No one wants to admit we live and farm in the subarctic.

The subarctic is a region in the Northern Hemisphere immediately south of the true Arctic and covering much of Alaska, Canada, Iceland, the north of Scandinavia, Siberia, and the Shetland Islands. Generally, subarctic regions fall between 50°N and 70°N latitude, depending on local climates.
