Ahh come on Brandon, you're Canadian. Grin and bear it like the rest of us...just make doing it under several layers of clothing if you're going to be outside.

All in all, I really don't have that much of a problem with winter... But -56? That's just crazy.

Is that cold enough to take a bucket of water and toss the water into the air and it will come down as ice crystals? How cold does it have to be for that to happen? Just curious.

It hits the ground as slush. I bet if I tried it with next-to-freezing water, it might produce more interesting results.

Wait minute. Doesn't hot water freeze faster than cold water? (yes it sometimes does. A strange phenomenon, but true.} But nevermind that.

Are you really doing a whole bucket of water? Maybe that's too much. Try just a glass. And throw it as high as you can. And make it spread out so it breaks up into little droplets. You have a digicam? Now I'm intrigued.

OuT. I don't think physics moves that fast, myself.

Brandon, just put a glass of water on the ground outsuide and see how long it takes to ice. Might need a stop watch.

Cheers
Mick

Brandon, why did you decide to live in Canada?
