They'd be 1000% correct in every aspect. My grandpa lived in a hole in the ground out here for years. A hole with a roof made of dirt and mixed straw and shit.
He'd slap me in the face for complaining about the CP server going down. |

Channel 2 out here in the Denver metro area has a counter on the screen "Time Below Freezing". It is 20 F'n degrees right now. How about "Hours below zero".
If it bleeds it leads and if it is cold our "Happy" governor declares a state of emergency. |

I have had very little snow. 10 miles away, 1 inch.
40 miles away--3 inches. Quite the cut off. |

This is funny: Will Alaska Be Warmer than Kansas City?
https://www.kansascity.com/news/weat...284174868.html Probably will be this weekend. We will be getting the usual low twenties for the high but then, we've already had a pretty good cold snap right after Christmas. Didn't hit 0 for a few days. And the end of January is typically the coldest part of the year so we have that to look forward to. Frankly, you all are getting what we typically get. Sunspot activity is diminished, which weakens the jet stream and pushes it east and south. That allows the cold Siberian air that typically hits my state to push further into the contiguous US instead of staying in Canada or the northern US. So just consider this a little gift from Russia and Alaska. If you're going to the game, wear layers, especially for your feet. If you can, a thin layer of merino wool socks with a much thicker layer of wool socks can work wonders. SmartWool is a great brand of sock. Polypropelene is a good base layer. Under Armor makes some good base layers as does Carhartt. If you want to be really warm, get a good base layer for your legs, like long underwear. THen go to Cabela's or Bass Pro Shop and buy fleece wader liners. They're designed to be worn under fishing waders in cold weather. Standing in glacial-fed water all day, even in water-proof liners, can get very cold so thick liners really keep your legs warm. You wear those two layers and then your pants and you will definitely be warm. Stay warm my friends. |

It's funny - when it gets really cold up here in the Chicago area, I sometimes check to see what the temperature is in Juneau. Most of the time, Juneau is warmer. Sometimes significantly so.
I assume that will be the case tomorrow when the deep freeze hits. |

Also, -10 and colder is BPC: butt-puckering cold. It's so cold that when you go outside, your butt puckers shut to make sure that no cold air comes in the back door. |

When the lower 48 is butt ass cold, Alaska is warm and Vice versa. It has always been this way. This is not new.
THE STAR SHOULD KNOW THAT. But of course, they need clicks and need to sell bird liners. There are times MPLS is colder than Mars. So F the Star. |

Yay blizzard and frost bite. My nipples are so hard and frozen stiff I could cut glass with them. If this weather doesn’t make you horny and ready to chase Eskimo pussy then chances are you bite pillows or something

Evidently they may move or postpone the Bills game.

Dang it's 1 outside now. Had to put the thermal underwear on the Yoder smoker for the brisket I am smoking in the AM. Probably should have wore a coat and gloves.
