Spain: Very strange weather, like we were in Spring. The sun is less hot but he is here and the days are warm, around 16 Celsius. How strange is this Autumn. Last week the temperature was something like that: during the day around 14 degrees, and at night 1 Celsius. So you can see that in few hours the difference was of 14 degrees.
NSW Australia: unseasonably hot days over September and October (getting up as high as 37 degrees Celsius or 99 Fahrenheit, dry and windy leading to many bush fires. We had some rain 2 days ago, and a violent electrical/thunderstorm, with heavy 'sheets of rain'.
We had an incoming cold front number 12, yesterday was too gelid, we were around 8° C (47°F?) all day long, today is better, warm sensation from the sun and the temperature is increasing. Although if you stay too much under its rays it burns. Cold feels colder when you do not have warm climate at home or work. Typical homes do not have them.
Does anyone had observed, its been like two years since the rays from the sun burn? It had been to me that sun's raylight seems different in whatever season (too bright and/or eclipsed? and burning raylights?) ... sometimes I think it could be related to the height above see level, Mexico City elevation's is at 2,250 m (7,380 ft).

Here in Edmonton Alberta Canada there is already a foot of snow that is NOT melting making it difficult to drive on side streets. There is another dump of snow predicted for this weekend to be about 25 cm last I checked! That's a lot before December even begins! At one point last week it was -30 which is traditionally more of a January temperature in these parts. Even though it has warmed up to -8 since then nothing is melting, only accumulating

Well, here in Quebec, we also have already received more than 30 cm of snow and it is awfully cold for this time of the season.
As I was saying yesterday while freezing outside. " I can not stand it anymore! "

That sounds really uncomfortable, Gandalf! Here in the northern part of Germany it also suddenly got pretty cold, with minus temps all of a sudden and frozen windshields (though no snow yet). This, and the general alarming outlook in terms of approaching ice age and the increasing planet-wide upheaval, and combined with the reduction in daylight - well, the signs cannot become much louder, it seems.
In the UK the 'big freeze' seems to be kept at bay for now. Forecasts of snow did not prove to be accurate. It's not warm by any means but I have read many indications of another hard and long winter. For the last 5 years the really low temperatures seem to start around mid December and there is very little respite for months into the next year.
Here in South East Germany we had temperatures above 0oC til last Sunday (Elevation ca. 500 m / 1,700 ft). Monday morning we had temperatures below zero. I saw that the begonias frozen and dead, which were still blowing on Sunday. The begonias indicate to me that the temperatures were warm enough for them to be alive until then.
Mid of the week we had frost. I saw there were -8oC one morning. We also had the first snow of this winter. Most of it thawed away but there are still small patches of snow in some protected places. It is somewhat warmer again - a little bit of yoyo temperature this week.
We often have the first frost weeks earlier - mostly in October or November. Around beginning of November there is often first snow of the winter. The temperatures dropped remarkably fast this week. In most years there is the first frost. The temperatures are around 0oC for a while. Then there is first snow, which usually does not last. It's getting warmer again for a while and then we get enough snow to shovel it away. But this weather is still within the normal range - nothing too unusual.

In Montreal, we have very little snow compared to where you live but it has been very cold as well. The wind and humidity are true killers. It went down as low as -20°C with the wind factor a few days ago.
On that say, I put on jogging pants under my jeans, a t-shirt, long sleeved shirt, pull-over, winter coat, winter hat, hood over the hat plus my coat's hood with synthetic fur as well as a scarf, gloves and boots. Then I went out for a smoke.
