The high yesterday was -1F

Ya, been a long time since we have seen it this cold. Sounds like tomorrow it should get above zero. Just doesn't seem quite right, looking forward to a high of 3. Arne.

-16 when I got up, I feel for all you southerners who aren’t used to this. I’m getting a new 400 lb planer delivered today, not looking forward to wrestling that off the semi and into my shop in this cold.

-1 right now, a few miles west of Tulsa. Windchill is -11, up from -21 at 7:30 AM. Tomorrow is predicted to be colder. I feel like 2020 said "top that!", 2021 said "hold my beer...".

I agree with you there. It's much more manageable for us up here to deal with -5F (Hey, it's warmer by the lake!) than for someone in TX to deal with 12F.

Ooof. Seriously, good luck with that!

-32, on Monday morning, in upper Michigan by Lake Superior. Payback for the beautiful December and January we had

-40 or colder in northern MN yesterday. One friend near Lake Superior mentioned -50 in a Facebook post yesterday. Right now it's -17 in the Twin Cities. I agree that at least we are able to handle it better than folks further south due to things like insulation in the house so the pipes don't freeze like some of my relatives in Arkansas are dealing with.

I am worried about the cold this year. Usually a few days of -15 to -20 are ok but last summer I planted new Marquette grape vines and I don't know how hardy they will be in their first winter. I hope I see some great growth in a couple of months.

Went to get the mail today wearing the same jacket I wore a couple years ago when visiting my great aunt up in northern MN in mid-September- I remember thinking I should have brought a warmer coat for a 40 degree windy fall day. I thought the same thing in the 10 degree, cloudy with snow flurries walk to the mailbox and back today! I wasn't outside very long today but it always amazes me how we adjust as the seasons change (at least for those of us who live where we have seasons). 40 degrees in fall is winter coat weather and in spring it's almost short sleeves weather, especially if sunny!

I've not looked yet my back is THumping, soon as that simmers down , I'll check the access panel to the garden tub, but i really doubt it is above the floor, hello tomorrow,, going to be a mess,,,
