Or in your case, a midget!

Good one! I should have seen that one coming. When i left for work at 5am this morning it was about minus 10 and the windchill was minus 25. I'm sure up by Racegal and into Minnesota it was a tad bit cooler than i had here.

When I left work this morning it was -35 wind chill, (Minneapolis suburb), spoke with my daughter at college in St. Cloud and it was -45 wind chill there. Might not be grilling out tonight.

Mike, You sure you wouldn't like to share just a tad?
I was going to whine a little, but this makes me thankful for our 10 below heat wave in Springfield. Jerry Spencer usually makes me feel better when he posts about the weather in Kokomo, but Susan, you have taken this to a whole new level. Hope you keep warm and safe.

Temp is at 0 here this morning but the wind isn't much so the wind chill is low this morning. We did get a little dusting over night and are currently seeing some light flakes dropping. I'm really starting to hate the word snow so i have come up with something new. From now on i'm calling it "crystallized frozen precipitation".

I'm sorry, but the cold and "crystallized frozen precipitation" has apparently affected your mind. I think you need to move farther south to get away from all that nasty weather. How about a migration to Indiana?

International Falls, MN, aka Frostbite Falls to Bullwinkle fans, set a New Low Temp Record (NLTR) Friday morning: 46 below. THAT will keep the Beer COLD!
