My wife and I have been keeping daily temperature records at our home in 
Waverley for 16 years. Using similar processing to that employed by 
Environment Canada, we produce a graph showing the "average" (not quite 
the right term, but it will do) temperatures for each day of the year.

February 14 is always a happy day for us, because this is the coldest 
day of the year here, on average. The average temperature for this date 
at our home is -6.7 degrees. Tomorrow, the average temperature is -6.4, 
and the temps continue to rise from now on until late July.

So, for us, today is the real depth of winter, and starting tomorrow we 
can expect to see the days slowly getting warmer as we begin to climb 
out of winter once again.
