Out west its warm... We are hitting high 40's this week in Northern Nevada which is nuts for this time of year.... But I see the upper mid-west and north east is getting a full dose of global warming

I'm fine with it being as cold as it can possibly get, as long as the wind isn't blowing. Once I feel a breeze, I'm running back indoors.

It's 15 above here in Detroit but with the wind it's -7 I think they said. Not much difference when I'm getting ready to drive in to work.

Cold outside while loading a 351M in a FTE members truck bed. Nice and t-shirt weather IN the shop. 16* (F) right now and getting colder.

Had 30+ turkeys in the front yard today, scratching away for some grub.

Had a huge ice rain last night, it,s just below freezing. I hear thousands are without power. My power was out for about 8 hours which was bad enough.
