It's 66F here right now. Supposed to get as high as 73F tomorrow before plummeting down to 21F. Where are you at where it's 20F?
Ellensburg, WA. Visiting girlfriends family for the holidays. Really glad I got the awd and snow tires. :D

Cool. I checked your profile and deleted the question. I see you caught it quickly. Looks like somewhere I'd like to visit someday. My mother lives in the Adirondacks. It's 5F at the moment. I'm sure that Red Squirrel or sdifox will arrive shortly to educate me on what "cold" really is. In metric of course! :D

I was born on the first day of spring in north Dakota, in the middle of a blizzard. Back when there was no such thing as wind chill. Negative temps plus that never stopping wind... that's cold.

Yup it is. At least those places have stuff going for them. North Dakota ain't got much.

I say be proud of where you're from. When I was younger I met a young lady down here from a small town in Nebraska. She would bad mouth where she was from. It turned me off big time. I never told her. Just stopped calling her.
