Little toasty this morning

What part of the state? Was 22 (wind chill of 14) in Guntersville when I got up this morning. Damn dog won't go out and pee if you don't go stand outside with her.

 

I lived in Grand Forks for 4 years. When I left it was -50°F the two days that the movers came to pack and load my house. The doors were open almost all day and our heating bill for those two days was 3 times more than our most expensive month of heating.

A few days later my wife and kids were flying from Grand Forks to Seattle with a connection in Minneapolis. It hit -70°F at the MSP airport and my wife and kids were stuck in a hotel for 2 days because they couldn't de-ice the planes.

There's a lot I liked about ND, but it kind of blew my mind when someone was telling a story and had to specify that the temperature was "above zero" when they said it was 60° outside. (It was just as plausible in his mind that I might assume he was saying 60° *below zero* so he made it clear.)

Fun fact: Grand Forks, ND is the only place in the lower 48 where it's been colder than both the North and South Pole on the same day.

 

That sounds like a topical Saturday night. Don't know where i am, who i am or who I'm with

 

It was +34 degrees in Anchorage today...................+28 degrees at McMurdo Sound, Antarctica....

 

Yep it's cold here

 

-19 when I left for work today, and now currently -4. Still warmer than -50 in MN. Truck belts make a horrible sound when I fired her up this morning, my block heater was plugged in too.

 

Uh, that was the heat huh Ron?
Riiiiiight. Yea, me too!


You cold folks stay safe!
It hits like low 30’s here and I start panicking LMAO!

 

But on a serious note, cold kills @20 times more than heat. Shade and darkness reduce exposure heat but you can't get away from the cold.

 

Right now it's -27 with a -45 wind chill, you just have to dress for it.
6 year old loves to plow

The deer don't mind -27
Don't think anyone can get a lower intake temp then me. I think it 0s out at 32°


Lake Superior freezing up!

 

As seen in Breckenridge this week...

 

Very cool! (Literally and figuratively.)

 

My sister lives off of smith lake. She loves it their.

 

usually thats not an issue anymore running 0-20w synth oil. its more of the battery producing enough CCA to turn over the engine. i think the 18 tundra has a dying battery as lately the charge is dropping down to 11.3v and the day it died it was 10.x volts. started right up 5 seconds after putting jumper cables on it.

normally the battery sits around 11.7 or 11.9 when not running and 13.1 when running.

remote start app gives a readout of battery voltage running and sitting.

 

It was 40 degrees this morning in Jacksonville, made me realize I made the right choice to leave the rockies lol
