Yeah but I'm not a selfish ass. I legitimately needed gas at the time I was just impressed with the timing

If the heaviest stuff isn't until after midnight, I'm intrigued to see what that will look like...this is already pretty intense.

-10c here and 1cm of snow here is front page news and the lead story for every news bulletin on every channel.

28c is a heat warning and in some areas the heat warning kicks in at 25c.
