Default Minus 25 And I'm Freezing

Well, it's winter and it's COLD!!!
(have I ever mentioned I hate winter?)

Right now we have snow on the ground and freezing temperatures.
(have I ever mentioned I hate winter?)

How is it going for everyone else?
(have I ever mentioned I hate winter?)

I think if anyone posts: "Hey RJ. I'm in southern TX right now. It's 78 degrees and the sun is shinning."
I just may loose it?

Same page here.

First few night shifts over Christmas break it was -20 with about 30mph winds, that was not fun.


It's actually mid 30s, hitting the 40s this weekend, warmest weather I've had in over a month, streets are drying up after being slush for the last week.

Yep here in the burbs of Chicago it has been brutally cold 21 below zero with a windchill of around -30 to -40 below. They cancelled schools today, but I still had to go to work . I am so lucky that I have my Mini in the garage because I probably would have had a problem today. My finacee’s winter beater had a problem and I had to give him my car (god forbid that he drive his Mini Cooper in the winter [:@]) - he dropped me off at work because it is on the way to his work. I am stranded at work and I am going though separation anxiety for my car.

yeah here in st. paul it isn't much better. been at least -25 every daywith about a -45 windchill all week when i'm driving into work. it even makes my 07 start pretty hard since it sits outside. horrible for gas mileage too!

i really don't mind it too much since i don't have to work in it at all. i love winter mainly cuz of the snow, but i could do without these bitter cold temps. if it stayed 15-20 all winter that would be great! ...until march/april, then it better warm up, cuzi'll be ready for spring by then!

gotta love MN! if you don't like the weather, just wait a day or so and it will change

Friday I had a dentist appointment for 9:00am. The outside temp reading on the display inside the Monte read -21 degrees.
Last night going to work was a little warmer. Temp read -17 while sitting in the driveway. As soon asI backed out, onto the street, it went to -18.
I had to take a cell phone pic before leaving.
