Here they blame cold weather for a bad designed vital bridge failure in Nipigon ,Ontario;  The traffic is closed both ways on Trans-Canada hwy since last evening; Eastern Canada is cut off from parries and West via road transport, have to take alternative routes via Michigan,Wisconsin;  brand new bridge opened in November, over 100 millions, (the lowest bidder maybe);  :(

Yup some engineer forgot that steel shrinks when cold. :eek:

For you Brits, yesterday it was raining here. That rain should have been snow normally.

I think everyone will welcome some cold weather as long as the days are sunny without rain and wind. 

We have had a record amount of rain and high temperatures in December.
