    Too darn cold and windy. It will be in the low 20's to high teens tonight. It got to around 30-35 today, but the wind went right thru me. HATE the wind when it's combined with cold. Brrrrrrrr

    25 degrees F this morning & a heat wave today in the 40's then a cold wave coming with single digits predicted. An early winter with about 5 inches of snow, lots of corn in the fields yet, slow harvest this fall.
    The frost is on the pumpkin & I've been BOO'D by two pet talk ghosts.
    Thank you Fritz & Cassiesmom

    The severe cold warning is over now. We are at -11 F at 3:45 pm and will be a balmy -24F overnight. At least the heavy snow has stopped. Whew!

    It's going to start warming up here next week - we'll get to 0 C or +32F.

    Tonight the wind chill will take it down to -40C, which is the same temperature in F. The actual temp without wind chill is a balmy -29C. YEEEKS!

    We're about 20 degrees warmer right now, but tomorrow night it will get down to 13. Most of our kids and some adults do not have the weather gear for this weather.

    I stocked up on Kerosene for the next few days.

    Sounds like a plan Momcat! As by tomorrow (Wed) night we will be enjoying the degree of "feels like" -27 Farenheit. Just give me a few minutes to scare up my summer gear.

    Well, it's now all of 14 degrees and sinking like a stone. Our weatherman, Hurricane Schwartz, is saying it will feels like -4 F. in the morning when my son has to leave for work. One of the perks of being retired - I don't have to go out.

    Many of the schools in the Chicago area will be closed tomorrow for student safety. I hope Soncat will get a snow day! (with pay!)

    Wow, you really get snow and cold over there, don't you! So much so it reached the news on TV here.

    I'm seeing a mostly blue sky here, and we have plus 5C right now. Quite spring like. Think I'll clean my windows.

    Like "momcat" said - BRRRR COLD in our neck of the woods. Coldest weather so far of this year's winter season, and feeling like it did last year at this time. But last year we had already had almost 2 feet of snow, but next to nothing so far this year. Had a coupe of inches yesterday, and also a couple about 2 weeks before Christmas - that's it so far.

    The wind is making it feel even colder than it really is, and tomorrow is supposed to be even colder. I like the cold - just not the wind that sometimes goes along with it. It's supposed to warm to more normal temps by the weekend - in the 30's. We probably won't see Niagara Falls freeze like last year.
