You are so right. Moist (high humidity) cold is the worse. That is what I have in Upstate NY. High humidity year round. Hot is unbearable and cold is miserable. Hmmm why do I live here?

Here's a video about the road conditions in Merritt BC... there's just nothing left! Audio cuts in and out a bit, but you get the gist of it

That's a mess for sure. The last time I travelled that road it had freshly replaced sections from a previous flood. Seems like they need a new plan if they want to keep a road in that valley.

Nesi, as kids we used to eat our dinner at the kitchen bench with our ears up to the old valve radio listen to the adventures of Biggles, an Enid Blyton play or two and the comedy Yes What, I think that was what they were called, all before television came our way of course. It starts to date me a bit.

The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning until Sunday morning on the Big Island of Hawaii.
The warning remains in effect from 6 p.m. Friday until 6 a.m. Sunday as up to 12 inches or more of snow is expected on the island. NWS also warns residents to stay indoors as forecasters predict winds gusting over 100 mph.
"Travel could be very difficult to impossible. Blowing snow will significantly reduce visibility at times, with periods of zero visibility," NWS's weather warning reads.
Aside from the blizzard warning, a Kona low is expected near the islands starting on Saturday night. Kona storms are a type of seasonal cyclone in the Hawaiian Islands, usually formed in the winter from winds coming from the westerly "Kona" direction, according to N. Kona lows often bring about wet and "unsettled" weather.
