Not sure if this is the proper place to post, so mods feel free to move to better spot.

Looks like we're in for some serious weather starting Monday afternoon/evening into Wednesday morning. It will be the 2nd significant snow event of the 2020/2021 winter season. I'm thinking with 2020 being a total write-off, why not give us some crappy weather as well, as we have had it really good the past few years.

To be fair, I wrote off this year back in March. Smile

I need to head out around 8 PM for a little bit so hopefully it don't get too bad before then.

If anyone saw the tornado warnings earlier today, it seems one did touch down in Ayr. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/kitchener...-1.7297580

We will be getting some bone chilling cold starting Sunday.

Natural gas bill is going to be a lot higher this year.

Not for me. I already saved a lot of money with the warm fall. I keep my thermostat down and make my family wear sweaters.... According to my NEST reports, I am always in the top percentage of the area I reside in.... But yes, definitely a lot of people will be surprised when their bill for January comes in. FYI, this is a normal winter in my experience.

I'm still stuck in the heat pump owner transition of being annoyed at my power bill but pleased at my gas bill... I guess next week will be a reversal of that one.

I will be curious to see how your heat pump responds to long term sub minus 15 temperatures. I hope it is worth it for your sake...

The furnace kicks in at -13, but that’s a pretty rare occasion these days.
