    It was about 8 outside with a -5 wind chill when I ran this evening. It wasn't bad. I've run in worse.

      Nine below right now (7:15 AM). Might hit 1 above by sunset.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Brrr!

            It is so true that cold is relative. If it gets down to the 60's in Thailand, people get out their winter jackets!

                Low of 7F today and tomorrow. 3-4 with wind chill.

                It’ll be mid-next week before we see temperatures north of freezing, if even just for an hour or so in the afternoon.

                  Snow yesterday, 7 degrees on the morning drive today. They still drove like Massholes.

                  I was only joking

                    Proud of the little guy, today he had to have walked 2-3 miles in the 10-15 degree temps. Of course, it was broken up every half mile with a stop at the Lego store, then FAO Schwarz, then the M&M’s store, then Hershey’s…

                                    Temperature is -1 F right now. Tuesday being pizza night for us (It's BOGO Tuesday), I went downstairs to place my order. I walked down the stairs and out. 10 feet to the take-out counter of the restaurant. I was wearing a sweater.

                                    Other people waiting for pizza looked at me like I was crazy for being so lightly-dressed, unaware that I live, literally, upstairs. I was outdoors for about 10 seconds.

                                    But yeah, it's colder than a kiss from my first wife (RIP).

                                          To a certain point, once we're moving things are fine. When it's so cold my glasses keep frosting up to the point I can't see....then it's time to re-think.
