Snapped these not long ago down at the lake. I was taking a video but my phone froze and shut down from the cold.

Ah you should have specified then. You said coldest December temperature since 1968, which was -17.8c. ;)

:clap: :clap:
That's a great idea to compare and track how accurate the models are.

For some perspective on the -15.3c temp at YVR today. We earned a place among some of the classics. :thumbup:

Thanks :catnip: :D

Haven't figured it out yet. Have a heater in the basement now and increased the light bulb in the pump house to a 100w. Biggest challenge is I don't know where it's frozen but I'm hoping this will thaw whatever is frozen and just like magic I'll have running water again.

Wow! Great photos Snowman, they really show the sea smoke. Lake smoke? Another new phenomenon to me. :o
