Oh we have a 15 mph wind here. That's a -37 wind chill factor.
Springfield, IL (your profile) is showing -9/-14. Is that where you're at?

Edit: Fairbanks, Alaska is 35 LOL. You can take a vacation there to get a tan.

That's the temp at the airport. My own weather station shows -14.2 with 15 MPH winds.

For some reason the airport and downtown is always warmer than temps taken elsewhere in the city

My central heat is keeping up, thankfully. It's a cozy 70 degrees in my office. :)

While the -15F that we have here in Peoria, IL is rough. I have nothing but respect and sympathy for our north/northwest comrades in MN, ND, and parts of MT and SD that were in the -40'ish range.

I don't mind driving in it at all unless the visibility sucks because of blowing snow, but the other drivers scare me. Their fuck ups can easily fuck me up.

This is one of the reasons I like biking. I get to go on the bike path instead of roads. The traction tends to be better on bike paths too because they don't plow them as well. I'd rather have a bit of snow over ice than straight ice.

Overnight tonight it's gonna drop to like -5F with a windchill of almost -25F. Ugh, and I gotta out the door at like 6am tomorrow, the time when they say it's going to be that temperature. Going to suck.

But if he's a softie, as you say, he won't get anywhere. I wouldn't worry.
