在加拿大


Edmonton coldest place on earth?Edmonton was the coldest place in North America this morning and the second-frostiest in the world.The Edmonton International Airport saw a record low of -46.1 C and -58.4 C with the windchill, outfreezing even the Arctic.“The cold high pressure has been moving down from the Arctic over the prairies,” said Environment Canada meteorologist John McIntyre, adding British Columbia and Saskatchewan also experienced plummeting temperatures. “We are right now in the centre of the heaviest, coldest air.”But the coldest day ever recorded in Edmonton remains unbeaten at -48.3 C with a windchill of -61 C on Jan. 26, 1972.Today’s frigid temperatures broke the previous record for Dec. 13, which was -36.1 C set in 2008, as well as the record for the coldest day in December, a low of -44.5 C set on Dec. 9, 1977. Cold Lake, Grande Prairie and Whitecourt also had record lows today.Only Dzalinda, Siberia, appeared to be colder, with a weather station there recording temperatures of -48 C.The extreme weather was enough to stall some planes at the Edmonton International Airport, said spokeswoman Traci Bednard.“A couple flights had to be diverted to Calgary (Saturday night) where it was warmer,” Bednard said, adding there were a few cancellations and a few delays early this morning.By 8 a.m., when the temperature improved to -40 C, most planes were able to start operating again, she added.“We are still asking people to check our website, www.flyeia.com, before heading out to the airport,” Bednard said, adding they can check up-to-date flight statuses on the site.Meanwhile, within city limits, some Edmonton Transit buses experienced mechanical issues from the cold and had to be replaced. Others were running on average 10 to 15 minutes late, said transit spokeswoman Patricia Dickson.The LRT system had weather-related problems with the track and had to run on a single track between the McKernan-Belgravia and South Campus stations for several hours. But otherwise, bus and train schedules remained unchanged, she said.Motorists requiring AMA’s services were faced with 24-hour wait times for tows and 14-hour wait times for other services such as tire changes and boosts, said spokesman Kent Dixon. On an average day, wait times for a tow would be an hour and less than an hour for all other services, he added.“My No. 1 piece of advice is to plug in your car. It is not an option in this weather,” Dixon said, adding oil starts turning into the consistency of molasses once the mercury dips to -15 C and colder. If motorists have forgotten to plug in their vehicles overnight and they don’t start up the next morning, Dixon said it’s not too late to plug them in as soon as possible and wait a few hours before trying to start them up again. “But if you don’t need to travel, stay in,” he said.The temps made life difficult for Sun photographers. One shooter said his camera froze up in mere moments outside and wouldn’t work again until it was warmed up.McIntyre said Albertans will soon get a reprieve from the cold when warm, pacific air moves through the province bringing a high of -10 C on Wednesday, a high of -4 C on Thursday, up to a high of -1 C on Friday. http://www.edmontonsun.com/news/edmonton/2009/12/13/12141366.html

一个人不会孤独, 因为我心还有佛祖回复: 埃德蒙顿,地球最冷的地方?楼主典型的自慰。自我安慰。为什么发这个贴?谁都知道地球最冷的是南北极。但那不能提,要提偶们加拿大境内的。楼主的意思是,谁说我们蒙特利尔冷啊,看看埃德蒙顿吧,我们蒙特人都笑了。其实就是五十步笑百步。为了在寒冷的冬天有一丝暖意,蒙特只能遥望埃德蒙顿了。可是人家那里工资高啊。15万年薪都不算新鲜,到底赚到钱了,受冷也认了呗。消费却不算高。40,50万的房子很多啊,堂耗子30万。人民生活富裕,经济潜力大噢。
