As previously established, it’s going to get cold. But it’s also going to get snowy. Super snowy.

Forecasters are calling for 5-10 cm of snow tonight and a further 2-4 cm of snow tomorrow. The oncoming cold snap doesn’t really kick into gear until Thursday but wind chill is sure going to make it feel cold today with it feeling closer to -20 with the wind. The real cold The Canada Cold — is expected to descend this weekend with lows of -28 C for both Saturday and Sunday.

If you’re the kind of crazy person who embraces these kinds temperatures then my hat’s off to you. But I’m kind of curious, just what does one do outdoors when the weather gets this cold. So let me know what you plan to do for the upcoming cold snap. Will you hunker down and hibernate or will you layer up and let loose?
