On this NOAA map, all shades of blue and purple translate to ridiculously cold. Who's freezing out there?

I had to push myself to leave the house for the lovely seafood dinner that Barb had prepared, but getting over there was not bad, the car warms up faster than my previous one and has heated seats, God Be Praised.
But coming home, when it had sat outside for three hours and the temp dropped to 5 below, it did not warm up so quickly and even the heated seats were tardy and barely felt. Fortunately, it's only a little more than a 10-minute trip.
Anyone see the Supermoon tonight, OMG!

Just drove home from Vinton and saw the moon. Really beautiful. The car was telling us it’s -17°F outside. I view that as unacceptable.

I walked out in my pjs this morning to fill the birdfeeder. That was about @ 11:00. I couldn't feel much.
Haven't been outside since. But it feels cold in the house. Temp says 69.

Why is it colder south of us? Not sure but I'm guessing we have sinned.

Why is it colder south of us? We’re in the Mississippi/Missouri basin, which means we’re at a lower elevation than Minnesota. Cold sinks, therefore....

As we sit in the condo with our bare feet up on the cool stone coffee table, watching reruns of the original Hawaii 5 0, I cant help but point out that Maui does not appear to be on that map.

It’s even cold up here. Just below freezing, but that’s cold for us. It’s clear, but foggy, so can’t see the moon.

I'm feeling for you guys in the upper middle. I've been in that kind of cold and know it's no fun. Little task become a major pain.
My local weather page has a place to put other cities and it's showing -6.7 for Minneapolis and -17.9 for Vinton and y'all have been having this stuff for a long time now.

I predict that this cold will pass and it will warm up again by June or July. Of course, I also predicted that Donald Trump would never win an election.

Pretty ridiculous. Singlehandedly slowing global warming.
