Local schools on two hour delay here.... probably close by morning. Either way I'm not planning on going out tomorrow

Schools have never closed due to cold here, just for snow. They are saying -14 tonight, high of 5 tomorrow. It is the wind that makes it miserable. The kids haven't been out for recess all week and they are acting crazy!

I ran into a few snow squalls earlier today on my way to get tires on my car. Talk about freaky.... actually white out conditions pretty creepy for someone who doesn't do a lot of driving in the snow. MontyJ usually does the driving.. but he's out of town and I had to work.

Heather, that is one beautiful photo of a great looking cabin. Is that your home?

That's our new(ish) house with tons of new snow! I was standing up to my knees to get those pics.

Beautiful house and nice snow, @NwMtGardener ! Just a little crunchy snow here.
We're at -21 right now, high of 2 predicted. I hope we get a little peek of the sun before it clouds up. Otherwise, my chickens will be miserable.
The good news, no below zero temperatures predicted for the foreseeable future.

Supposed to be 70 today! Then going down back to low 60s during the week.

I can't even imagine what -31 feels like.

You really don't want to know what it feels like Mary.
The extreme cold, ice and snow is so much worse for those not used to it or prepared for it. Thankfully I don't have to be out in it as much now.

They changed how they measure/calculate wind chill about 15 years ago. -31 would have been about -60 back then ...your skin will freeze in about 30 minutes if it isn't covered. But hey, I can freeze a banana outside and use it as a hammer.

We have a ground blizzard going on now. -10°tonight. Bundle up and drive safe, and slow!
