Insane Cold

Yah, here in northern Indiana we've got -18 right now with a wind chill of about -36 or so. It's supposed to go even colder tomorrow with even more wind (It's gusting to 35mph right now). Thankfully, no additional snow though... Drifting snow is closing lots of roads which is AWESOME, at least, if you own a TJ!!!!!
As a side note, I went out on to my back deck this morning BUCK NEKKID just to prove I could do it. I'm here to tell you that -18 is pretty cold!!! :jump:

That's crazy! It's sunny and 58 here.
Still cold by our standards, but I've never dealt with anything like what you guys are dealing with.

CO is going to be mid 50s this week, I think yesterday might have been our coldest morning so far this winter at 11 degrees.
My last year as a student at Wyoming we had -53 below for a few days. Real nasty weather. They never once cancelled class though
I always said if my wife or I had a chance to move south (AZ, NV), we'd take it in a heartbeat. Id be ok if we never saw another snowflake again.
Well you probably won't see too many snowflakes in NV or AZ... either kind
I really miss living in Arizona.

Where were you in AZ.
In Yellowknife we saw -51 every year.
Heres our dog begging to go out for a shit...
coldest we saw was -72F.
And those temperatures, are without any wind chill factor.

They must be tougher down in Laramie than they are here in Chicago. My classes were cancelled today and for half of tomorrow. People are absolutely losing their minds over "feels like" -37. The students here are claiming that the university asking dining hall employees to come into work is a human/workers rights violation...
All this is a bit overblown when we have friends like @billiebob who face consistent cold weather like this.

Sitting pretty at -25 wind chill in SW Ohio! I mostly work with schools, which are all closed today, so I'm just twiddling my thumbs and hanging out on the forum
Depends on what is normal.
If families never expect a cold snap, and kids don't have correct clothing, and busses are not set up to run at those cold temperatures, it would be irresponsible to not close the schools.
Even in the NWT, the airlines are only certified to run as cold as 44below. When Yellowkinfe dips below -44C, the jets are grounded.

I'm in Iowa and it is -32 here, supposedly as low as -60 with windchill. Had to be at work at 4am this morning. Went out at 3:15 to start the TJ, only took one try but did have to take a minute or so easing up on the clutch. Gave her about 20 minutes warming up and drove into work. So far I've been the luckiest one at my job as far as vehicles starting.
