Ah yes, I remember this feeling well.

That’s not your normal wind now is it? No. That’s a chilly wind. A wind with chill. Or perhaps no chill, depending on how you look at it. The kind of wind that cuts through even the strongest of hoodies (or a bunnyhug, if your name is Lisa 🐰).

I’m not suggesting you need to leave the house with a toque and mittens just yet, though that time is drawing near with snow and highs in the minus territory starting next week. Of course, if you’re one of the 45,000-plus heading to Commonwealth Stadium tonight for the big Canada v. Costa Rica match you might want to layer up for that one, folks. Just a hunch. Go Canada!
