...but, it's normal here in Winter.
7° now.
The old Dakota lit instantly. Some things don't change.
Supposed to get 3-6" of snow tomorrow night and get colder.
I hate Winter.
 
Yep thats cold,I moved to s carolina because upstate NY winter seemed 6 months long.
 
As you get older the winters seem colder.

When we have temps in the 20s for a period of time it gets old real quick. It never gets below 40* out in the garage but heating it with a 30 amp electric heater can get costly. That added onto the heating for the house almost gets unaffordable. So I'm waiting out this cold snap before working out there again. You also have to watch the forecast for a sudden warm-up in order to keep things from condensating. I almost go stir crazy in the house this time of year.

The days are getting longer and we're halfway through February. Won't be much longer!

It's the wind chill that's killing us today, be safe!!
 
We are in a real deep freeze in Canada. -34.6 this morning!
 
16 in western Ky. Same forecast as Slap Stick.
 
Got a couple inches of snow today, first time this winter that I can't see the grass. But it's just at the freezing mark on the thermometer.
 
Ya, this is lasting longer than any below 0* stretch I recall since the early '70's. Numerous days with lows colder than -15* F and highs below 0. I bet the libs claim the Arctic ice caps are still melting! LOL

We're in the low 30's here in North Carolina, but I have been without power for 2 days now. We had bad freezing rain Friday night and there's trees down everywhere. Running off the generators and space heaters to stay warm. It's around 60 in the house. I am leaving for Illinois tonight, that should be fun.

I'm in the process of losing my mind. I am soooo close with my 383 Scamp project, but it's so F'ing cold I can't do anything! The past couple weeks have been super BORING!

Then I read this and count my blessings. (But I'm still going nuts...)
