icicles on the garage gutter

We have been having problems with the water freezing in the house on and off for the last 2 weeks.  The temperature here hasn’t risen above -5°C and has been down to -20.5°C.

Now it seems that it is not our water that is frozen but the external supply from the SWDE.  I am now quite good at locating the frozen pipes in our house and can usually get them defrosted in less than 1/2 hour.  Not today!

At least the forecast is predicting warmer weather (around 0°C) but we will be shoveling snow instead of defrosting pipes.  Roll on summer 🙂
