I know you BC and Alberta guys will probably laugh at this, but we need a little levity every once in a while.
It's so cold it takes my whole ride to work of 13 miles to get to 192 Degrees, and that's with a winter cover and 3 hour soak with the block heater. If I dare to stop at MacDonald to get some breakfast it's good to loose 10 to 15 degrees easy, thank goodness for heated seats.
I have a 60 LB box of pig livers(for the dogs) on the floor of the garage, usually after a couple of days I can break it up and portion it off, it's been there for two weeks, still as hard as the cement it's sitting on.
Had to move all the pop into the fridge in the garage(that hasn't run in three months) to keep them from exploding, so now it's a warmer instead of a cooler.
My 8 year old Tibetan Mastiff who usually won't get off their couch is running around in the back yard like someone has been giving him energy pills, I have to go chase him down to get him inside to warm up every so often, he's like what, leave me alone.

The BC and Alberta guys are laughing alright, there in the middle of a freaking heat wave.
-17 this morning with a wind that took us to -30, schools closed, it took my 15 mile ride for coffee to warm the truck(some what), seriously thought the heated seats weren`t working till just before I got home. Garage was toasty tho, that`s all that matters

A balmy -12 this morning, a buddy drives past Detroit Metro Airport every morning says his car thermometer dropped to -22 when he drove by it this morning. Supposed to go to 30 tomorrow with 4 inch's of snow, bring it on, we're having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave.
Lots of schools closed the last couple of days, funny I don't remember that crap when we were growing up, we always went to school.

We set a record here in DC, it was 6 degrees at Regan/National, breaking the old record of 8. I'm a little south and we are at 5 degrees. With the windchill it is -13 and -12 respectively.

This may be hard to beat. This morning at 7:00am the thermometer on my deck read -24 degrees F. while the 8:00 am news warned of a wind chill of -39 degrees F. I thought that a decision to close the schools and not run the buses would be made but everything was a go. When the weather becomes more seasonal it will seem like we'll be living in the tropics!
