Little late to the game.. Saturday morning it was -27 here, and not too far from here it was -48. Quite a few places in MT hit in the -40's that morning.  A little below normal, but not too far off.  Bigger issue is the wind has come up, which makes the wind chill down into the we won't talk about low numbers.  I have plowed out my drive (1/10th mile) several times a day just due to the drifting snow.  We got two feet of the stuff just a few days before.. :D

As a side not, my new neighbors from Napa Valley California, who moved here in August, are having a bit of an issue right now... never did see them put up any wood for their off-grid house.. hmm

It's going to get above freezing for 6 days even getting up to 44 on Monday. It might rain but it won't be freezing rain. I don't mind as long as there's nothing to shovel. Then it's supposed to be 30-32 for awhile. I wouldn't want to live anywhere that  gets below 0 very often. Single digit chill factors are bad enough.

It is cold enough I caught liberal politicians with their own hands in their pockets.

Dadgummit it got quick cold last night. We were only supposed to have a low of 29 right before daybreak  and then warm up immediately.  We made 29 before midnight and by 3 AM it was 24.  Thankfully it got no colder but it did not get above freezing until after 10 AM. 

So...when I woke up at 03:30 AM before I went back to sleep I noticed the temp.  I laid there hoping it would warm up for another half an hour BECAUSE no one turned on the heat in the RV.  So at 4AM I was up and out the door to remedy the RV's thermal dilemma.   The lower bay with the water storage was down to 34 and the interior was 36...so I made it in time.   

I'm afraid it's gonna be cold this winter.  I'm going to pull out the Old Farmer's Almanac and see what they say about winter.

It snowed just a trace 2 or 3 nights in a row but it's so cold it hasn't melted off my car and most other objects. The driveway retained enough heat to melt it, but my yard has snow on top of the neighbor's leaves that I need to mow. The sun is coming up in 15 minutes but I'm not in any hurry. It's supposed to be back up in the 50s this weekend.

The Farmer's Almanac will go away next year from what I've heard as of yestidy.
