Ten days ago I awoke to find the thermometer down to -29C; quite cold, but
not near the coldest we have around here. *But* within 24 hours it was +1C
and got a little warmer before cooling off again. Right now it's -14C. We've
had it very cold in Toivakka from time to time. The lowest in my experience
so far was -48C in 1983. My wife's little car, brought from SA when we came
here (a Golf), was the only car in the village that ran properly - don't ask
me why!
