Sorry John , can't help you there. I'm old but not that old . To you I'm probably a young whipper snapper :lol:
If you dig deep into your memory bank can you recall any cold winters from the 40's,30's or 20's? No googling allowed.

:o Say what? You really are ancient! :P So all that teasing we did was justified :lol: Congrats on reaching 100 ! 101 to be exact! Did global news weather announce your name and birthday last year? I thought I saw someone from chilliwack. The Lord has blessed you with a long and healthy life. Kudos for embracing technology, computers,internet etc, a lot of people in their 70's and older don't want anything to do with it.

18z still has the cold shot for northern BC on Sunday. Perhaps some wet snowflakes around Fort Nelson. Mild and dry for us down south

John are you really 100 years old????! That's amazing and SO AWESOME you're on this forum! Here I was impressed that my 83 year old Nana can use an iPad and Facebook but you being here is even more incredible. I would love to hear about some of your great weather stories. Have you always lived in Chilliwack?
