Ok.... NOW it's cold

Today, the high was -3. No, that's not a smudge on your screen... today's high was 3 degrees below zero (yes, I understand that is not significantly better than 3 degrees above zero, but still). Wind chills below -30. It was so cold, schools were closed.

Now, I know that a lot of people thought I was crazy for moving this far north, but I have been loving the weather, truly. The spring (what we were here for), summer, and fall were all fabulous. And winter has been fine. On the rare occasions that temperatures fell into the teens, I grimaced a bit, but it was bearable. But now... now it is some 25 degrees below normal. I am earning my midwest bona fides.
