Have already had -20 here a couple of times this winter . Will be interesting to see what the next couple of days bring as far as wind chill goes.

Supposed to be 9 degrees Tuesday morning in the greater Charlotte area. Pretty cold for the Carolinas! I will be taking the short 20 mile route to work for sure.
Took advantage of some 76/77 degree temps to get in a 75 mile jaunt with several friends. The 20/40 degree temps arrive in the Citra Fl. area Tuesday morning. With a projected "hard freeze" for most of Northern Florida there will be no escaping the cold unless I head for the Keys
We are expecting an air temp tonight of -30-35 with wind chills in the -60-70 degree range tonight. I worked on one of my cars in my heated shop this afternoon with the gas furnace set at 55 degrees. I was comfortable with a light jacket and cap on. The furnace ran about every 45 minutes. I'm sure glad my contractor advised me to super insulate with foam insulation in the walls and double insulation in the ceiling and attic. We also put in the highest grade overhead garage doors which also have insulated glass windows. I doubt that heating my shop without these upgrades would have been practical. This shop was many years in planning and it has already proven to be my Winter sanctuary as I am now retired. So by Spring/May I will have everything buffed, polished, tweaked, tightened, adjusted, upgraded, modified, painted, lubed, inflated, deflated, jacked up, jacked down and ready for Spring!
You know it's cold when Weather Bug uses an igloo to illustrate how cold it is.
Feel sorry for the people in Central Minnesota. Actual temps of -35 this morning, with wind chills of 60 below.
