Minus (yes..MINUS) 7° in York this morning.
Dunno if this is a record, but I've never seen it this cold (not including will chill temps).

Yep, yep. I know you know what I mean, Bill.
What's a fella suppose to do? Why just weekend before last I put down 1800 sq.ft. of sod and twas startin' to green up. Taint no more! I mean, I gots things to do outside like tranplanting a few abelias and such, and I have 8 bloomin' camellias all lined up ready to put in the ground. Well, they are froze blooms now.
I know this is no record setting deal, but 49 degrees swing in less than 48 hours is a bit xtreme. It needs to make up its mind: either git cold and stay cold for a spell, or git warm and stay warm.
I guess what's realy on my mind is that I needs to get things done so that I can earn my keep, for when my sweetie, SWMBO, you know who I mean, gets home from a hard day's work, she wants to see progress so she'll know I'm worh keepin' around. I mean, I can't even call in sick or nothin' like that.
At least those fellas way up yonder know what to spect. They can just count on hangin' it up bout end of September until long bout end of May. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
A rule of thumb that I have: ifins to cold to set down on the back porch to pull on my work boots, then it's to cold to work outside.
Hopin' y'all are stayin' warm!

Gee, I don't know if we hit it yet this year but here in Minnesota there is times when we hit -20 with 30 or so mile an hour winds. Try going out in that as it feels like it is -70 with them winds.
At least my tractor still starts, but then again it is in a heated garage /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

We went from no snow on the ground on the 14th of January to 24" today. Drifts and snow seem to be the nature of the beast now. And 12 below makes it hard to function outside for too awful long. Block heater has saved my bacon a few times now. Plug it in for an hour and I'm golden
