RE: Library Roof With Icy Eaves
I suppose someone unfamiliar with the word might try "ice stalactites" or something! It's downright tropical here compared to where I grew up, though. In Minnesota, it would reach -40° or lower. Fun fact: It doesn't matter whether you use Celsius or Fahrenheit, because -40° is the same on both scales. And there was always a wind chill factor on top of that. Snow fell in little shards of ice that blew sideways in the wind.
Wow, a really incredible temperature, can living in a climate like that be boring?
"Cabin fever" and Seasonal Affective Disorder are real problems for a lot of people. However, snow and cold weather also mean opportunities for winter fun. My only real objection to winter is that it's a bother to put on extra layers of clothing to do everything outside, and moving snow is an unpleasant chore.
