Man, it's a nice day here in Toronto... no snow.. no rain...it's not even cold.. just slightly under 0 celcius.

Just ran my Slash for 30 minutes doing some crazy jumping... nothing break..everything was smooth... nice truck....

going to the little circle truck at the huge park beside my house later in the afternoon to have some more fun.... gonna bring my nitro as well..

so are you guys ready for summer yet?? Hope it's not going to snow anymore..

Willystylz

oh i'm ready and waiting!!! It's still only middle of Feb so only inevitable it'll snow again..........but each passing day we do get a little closer towards spring!!

Spetz

Not even cold? Under 0 degrees?
You're crazy...
I don't go race my car if it's anything under 15 degrees... thankfully a winter day is 20 degrees here so with a jumper I am fine outside

samguan

oh come on... it's Canada...when we say the weather is nice outside. that means it's above 0 degrees. it's -1 in the afternoon. it's going to be a nice day..

breezerboat

I feel for you guys up there. I'm in Austin and the weather is hardly ever too cold. Today it's actually a cold day. I think it's only gonna get to 58 degrees. Burr. It was 80 two days ago and I almost took the top off of my Jeep.

Closest I've ever been to lving in Canada was a winter in Minniapolis. Way, way too cold there. It's 57F (14C) here right now but has been in the upper 60's, low 70's (18 - 22) the past week.Another month or so and we'll be getting into some really good weather and I will be very glad for it.

samguan

you guys are lucky!! The weather here in Toronto in the past two weeks or so was nice.. I think the highest was 8 Celcius last week... now it's back down to below 0C now.

It's -3 c here and im charging the batts for the Firestorm.....Nice day for a run...

The other night when i left work it was -30 c now that was cold.

There isnt really a winter up here in southern california. Rains every once in a while. I think the coldest it ever was during the winter was 40degrees F.

SAVAGEJIM

Boy howdy am I ready for the spring and summer! It has been an extraordinarily cold winter this year. I remember in the south that it basically was summer from spring through fall and winter was basically just a long spring. Great for running RCs all year around.

Willystylz

believe me when you go thru one of the coldest Januarys on record where it was between -20 and -30 most of the month, 0 C seems pretty darn balmy on a sunny day in Feb.....barely even need a coat!

Metallover

Very true abot the snow...

Almost all the snow melted here! It got above 40f a few days and it was amazing! I put on shorts and a t-shirt and went outside. It's about 20f now. Just a little too cold for being outside too much. Whenever it's above freezing this time of year it's really nice.

As for being ready for summer, I've been lifting to get in shape and I'll begin running when it warms up even more. I finished my spud gun, my crt .5, and I'm getting parts in the mail for my third project, my electric bike. This summer is going to rock!

Druss

I love the snow, paddles and lights on my slash and away we go.... Don't like the cold though... brrr... you wussies in Ontario don't know the meaning of cold.

Willystylz

sure it gets pretty nippy in edmonton but in ontario we don't get the luxury of those shinook winds passing thru making it 15C in the middle of january............plus here it actually snows especially when you're an hr north or west of toronto

CaptainSpaulding

Yeah we had a great couple weeks here in N.C. 55-72F degrees the last couple weeks!!! Warm weather just teasing us, making us want it more....lol

ace9213

wow sucks to be in canada. yesterday was a cold day and it was 48.

redfisher1974

Ok druss lets take a look at this......Did some research on the weather network

Edmonton... mean temps Jan. -13
feb. -10
mar. -4
Apr. +4

Ontario (northbay) mean temps- jan. -12
feb. -10
mar. -4
apr. +3

Days below 0 Edmonton jan 31
feb 28
mar 30

Ontario Jan 31
feb 28
mar 29

Not much difference........

redfisher1974

This one should shock you......Snowfall this year edmonton.....74 cm Ottawa... 427 cm

Now whos the wussy?

Druss

Guys, I think you need to realize that Edmonton is the northern most city over 1,000,000 people in North America. We will routinely get at least a few days a winter that's -40 or colder.

Edmonton's lowest ever is -46, Torontos is -32. This is from Environment Canada.

The snow on the sides of my driveway routinely get up to, and sometimes over, 6 feet.

Sure parts of Ontario get colder than Toronto but how many people live up there? If you want to compare that way then I'll pick a city in Northern Alberta and you'll really lose, -55 easy north of Fort McMurray.

Druss

If you lived there then that would make your arguement stronger, plus that's one year.

Back to topic.... I'm more than ready for summer, cars, trucks, boats and helis are ready to go.

redfisher1974

sorry druss i live 20 minutes from waterloo ont. and it got more snow then ottawa this year

redfisher1974

fact is edmonton is alot more north then northbay.....And their is alot more to ontario then toronto

Druss

Man just let it go, look up the stats on Environment Canada for the last 20 years, not one year.

redfisher1974

why? your not always right
