Think it was about -3 Celsius with the wind gusting to 33km. .. not that bad really but still a pain trying to walk on smooth aluminum with a layer of snow

That's when you skate around and play hockey. No Canadian reference i swear.
A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.

All while drinking Labatt Blue....

On a serious note, that would suck...slipping on a roof is no joke, and tigging in snow/wind would be a nightmare.
I weld stainless, stainless and more stainless...Food Industry, sanitary process piping, vessels, whatever is needed, I like to make stuff.

Man it's even colder than in Finland and I'm just 250 miles south of the arctic circle. Freezes over during night but we get sunny nice days so far. Sucks when it gets dark at 18:00 though and it'll just keep on getting darker. I am most happy at summer when you can see the sun still just under the horizon even at night.

I don't envy you right now. Friend of mine is working out in Alberta right now and i've seen much the same pics from him (He's an inspector . . . one that can actually weld though lol . . . last I know he was working on some unspecified stuff running tig at a hydrogen plant). I don't mind the snow, but working outside in that sh*t with the wind blowing sure doesn't sound fun.
