I just saw an article in the paper this morning (here in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada) that Bulgaria and many other Eastern European nations were having record cold temperatures of -30. (FYI, -30 doesn't normally even register as "insanely cold" up here - although we are actually having the warmest temperature on record here and it's been consistently just around 0 or slightly below which feels like such a warm winter we are all in complete shock!). Funny that I sat down at my computer and read this post right after the article in the paper.
