Come on Ed, -4°C is about (32-(~2*4))= 24°F.
-40°F=-40°C
More accurately, °F = 5/9 * °C + 32

All this morning, Weatherbug is saying it is 48 degrees (F) outside
where I live.
I have WB set to get the reading from the nearby International Airport
(SWF) 8 miles away.
However, the Weather channel site, and all my outdoor thermometers say
it is is 7 (F).
Weatherbug's other local thermometer locations all say 6-8 F
Closing and reopening Weatherbug and even rebooting the computer has had
no effect on the temperature error.
Maybe I should call SWF and tell them their building is on fire? :-)

No, only do that when it reads 451F. Perhaps you should call them and
tell them to close the window under the sensor.

It's a cold (for us), wet +49F here in Houston.

Judging by the number of folks wRecing mid day to day, it's either too
cold or too wet, or both, to be making sawdust.

Although I did spend the morning futzing and fiddlin' with Festool
technology while cutting some drawer bottoms to length out in the
garage, which is currently set up as a material storage/cutting area.

Don't mind cold, and don't mind wet (unless I'm duck or goose hunting),
but the combination gets more unpleasant with each added year.

She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol
And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
Well she pressed her chest against me
About the time the juke box broke
Yeah, she gave me a peck on the back of the neck
And these are the words she spoke

Chorus:
Blow up your T.V. throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try an find Jesus on your own

Well, I sat there at the table and I acted real naive
For I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve
Well, she danced around the bar room and she did the hoochy-coo
Yeah she sang her song all night long, tellin' me what to do

Repeat chorus:

Well, I was young and hungry and about to leave that place
When just as I was leavin', well she looked me in the face
I said "You must know the answer."
"She said, "No but I'll give it a try."
And to this very day we've been livin' our way
And here is the reason why

We blew up our T.V. threw away our paper
Went to the country, built us a home
Had a lot of children, fed 'em on peaches
They all found Jesus on their own

Ah, to be young and foolish, again!

A front can come thru and give you a completely different set of weather
conditions in less than an hour.

I have seen that happen not in Nov, and it kicked the **** out of us. The
only choice at the time was throwing out the anchor. It held.

In the western end, the shallowness made the wave faces (12 foot estimated)
pretty damn steep. The outboard kicker was replaced with an inboard before
the next year. After more experience had been gained, we put in two reef
points, and got a storm jib, and a sea anchor. I would have sailed through
it with that new equipment and knowledge.

They are saying the heaviest stuff will fall generally in the area
south of the 401, tapering off as you get closer to Erie and Huron
shores and the Bruce.
Here in Kitchener we are just on the edge of that projected area, so
who knows what we will get. It's been a strange one so far this year -
no bad storms (yet) and we are back up to about the same amount of
snow we had before the late december/early January thaw melted it ALL
away. Just over a foot of snow on the flat and open ground.
But we still have the rest of February, and all of March and April
ahead of us!!! Anything is possible (those who can remember 1978/79 in
this area will know what I mean!!!)

They're calling for 6-14" here. That's heavy for this area, but not too
much of a problem. The ice is frozen enough to plow the rink if the snow
blower can't keep up.

The biggest concern is going to be blowing snow. That's why we've got a
Blizzard Warning out (our second of the season, actually.)
