I'm sitting here getting some writing done and I notice the furnace seems to be running a lot.

So I go take a look to see what the thermometer reads outside. It's -20F out there!!!

I am so ready for Spring to get here.

      Rick -

      Where are you in Ohio? I'm from the Southern part and it seldom got that cold when I lived there.

      Brrrrrr - and we were complaining today here because it was in the mid 40s and we might have a "hard frost" tonight.

    Man that's freezing. I didn't know it got that cold in Ohio. It was about 30F a few weeks back here in Bakersfield, I was bundling up just for that.

    Um...Rick? You ever think of moving? Even here in the Great NW it's in the 30's above.

      It is a little chilly here too Rick.
      Lows around -5 to -10 and day time highs in the single digits and teens.
      Got more snow and a heat wave coming in tomorrow with highs around 28 and lows around 16.

        I'm over by Albany so it's not as cold.
        Got the snow coming though.

    I teach ski racing on weekends. Here in Ontario (Canada) it is minus 35 with the windchill factor. Minus 20 is spring weather.

    @ Kay, I am located 35 miles south of Wooster in Coshocton county. A small rural town in a peaceful setting. Nice and quiet most of the time.

    @ Sal, Yes, I have thought about moving a time or two. But I like it here in Ohio. I like the change of seasons and the winters usually not that cold. This is the coldest it's been in 15 years. I remember it getting down to -40 deg. back in the early 80's when I was working on the oil rigs. That was down right damn cold. Nothing like working with ice hanging on your eye brows and mustache.

    I hear ya Rick! It was the same here for thursday and friday today was a heat wave the high got up to 17F (lower Michigan) and of course now that it is warmer it had to start snowing again!

    P.S. I'm asuming that -20F was without wind chill like it was here.

    Yep, you assumed right CJ. When I got up at 5:30 this morning it was -22F.
    Don't know what the wind chill was.

      It's not as cold tonight as it has been for the past couple of nights here. Last night and the night before it got down to 0 degrees. I was wearing gloves and it didn't even feel like I was wearing anything!
