10 AM in Ottawa, +2F right now, going down to -2F tonight. If we are lucky, it will go up to 14F today.
It's not how fast you can go, but how good you look at 20 MPH.

Iowa, -13 last night, single digits today, but finally warming up this week into the 20's. Glad the boss paid the gas bill.By the way, 35+inches of snow since Dec. 1. Dec. was the 2nd snowiest month in history. (since late 1800s).

Beamer, I didn't forget lawyers, it never get's that cold for them, they always have their hands in someone elses pockets, I reckon that what makes them gravitate to enter politics! Have a good day! It was 11 degrees F before dawn, now at 10:47 it is sunny and 32 degrees F!

I don't think there is any way to keep lawyers hands in their own pockets. Think that roman hands is the first lesson in law skool. Et tu, Brute

Yesterday's hi and lo in Lahaina, HI (very near where we've been last 3.5 wks) 84 hi and 66 low. Now home in PDX, Ore where it's not raining but pretty chilly. Around 40 degrees cooler for high temp compared to Maui. Zowie, that feels chilly!!!!!
Thankfully, no where near cousin's temp in Bismarck, ND....

I think I'm a fairly wise person because I'm smart enough to realise I'm not too bright.

It's so cold in Minnesota that the roosters are rushing into Kentucky Fried Chicken and begging to use the pressure cooker.

It's so cold here in the Great Smoky Mountains that we have to drink moonshine and drive our old cars up and down "Thunder Road" to stay warm........ (no, not simultaneously)  But we do that in July, too! Brisk, anyway. 5 degrees F this morning.  All the Best, Chip

Hey Hoppy, Maybe that is why you don't get your G&Ds on time. Got up to 42 today in our part of god's country. Sun was shining and all was good inside.

Political humor should be acceptable, but after all this is a car site. Our temps for the most part all of the past week have been as low as -18 and we might consider that mild for this time of year. West Yellowstone and a small eastern Montana town both hit -39 and that was ambient temp not wind chill.

It is so cold here in Fountain Hills, Az that the rattlesnakes are wearing earmuffs.
In fact, we will only be in the low 70's all week and will even have highs of only around 68 next weekend. It has gotten down as low as 45 at night outside (55 inside) so if it gets any colder at night we may have to turn the heat on. Brrrrrr! In the meantime a fire in the ole' gas fireplace keeps us warm in the evenings as we watch the weather reports from the north.
But fortunately, at the worse, it will be only partly cloudy a couple of days so the sun will be out so we can see where we are going when we drive the 41.
