OH MAN IT'S COLD!!

[nbp]

Well, we got almost a foot of snow today, and will be having near record low temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday night! I will post back when we see how it shakes out.

-19°F tomorrow night...but the high for the day? -10°.

 

[PhotonWrangler]

Now THIS is how you declare a snow day.

Looking at -24F actual tonight and 20-30mph winds for -50+ wind chills. High of -11F tomorrow. Near record lows on Wednesday night of -27F actual! This will be the coldest temps since I was about 8 years old. Yikes.

Last time I was in MN in the winter it was -30 windchill .... ummm yeah that's COLD

Weather is no joke up north, be safe brother.

 

[InvisibleFrodo]

Yeah- it is cold here in MN right now. Harshly cold. To the point that I don't understand how wildlife manages to survive out there.

It was 40F or 4.5C in the dirty south today. Had to shed my outer layer on a walk earlier. Be safe up there, everyone!

-17°F on the way into work this morning. Incredible wind chill...almost enough wind to push me on the ice just standing in the lot.

It makes us tough! [emoji16]

I posted two fun videos of tossing and spraying boiling water at -20F. I don't know why the first one is sideways.

Just to put a perspective on what -54 wind chill felt like here this morning,

..it's supposed to be near 40 and a chance of rain this weekend, that will feel nearly 95 degrees warmer!

 

[nbp]

I think you're just a little north of me IIRC orbital. [emoji16]

I left the house at 3:00pm for an appointment and it was still -15F. Ive never seen the state shut down for cold like this before. Its crazy, its like a holiday. No school, no mail, no banks, small stores and clinics closed, big stores closing early. I couldnt drop off stuff at the drycleaner 'cuz it was closed!

Yeah don't fall into frozen lakes... 9/10 doctors don't recommend it

For you folks experiencing COLD weather, no matter how bad it stinks, don't open the window!

Someone's getting an entire new toilet - trap likely cracked around the base too.

Wow. I've seen frozen water cause things to explode before, but I've never seen anything like this!

 

[Chauncey Gardiner]

The name of the toilet manufacturer adds to my enjoyment of the picture.
