-7° F, feels like -32° F


How they design cars to work in such conditions... wow!!
That kind of weather is very hard on automobiles, especially if you are not using the correct viscosity oil and/or don't change it often enough.

When it's that cold, it's a good idea to be very gentle until it's warmed up.

The low tonight's supposed to be -9F here. I'm just going to leave the block warmer plugged in all night so the block isn't one big ice cube tomorrow.
