We are in the midst of an epic cold snap (according to the weather folks). Those of us living in the upper midwest are experienced in cold and become annoyed when other folks promote their experiences with the cold. Perhaps this is unfair. If you are not prepared and equipped, modest temperatures are cold.
I was supposed to be on my way back to work today. I am not. Minnesota and North Dakota are pretty much shut down and road conditions are dangerous. Sliding of the road would not be a good. Despite national attention, today is not as bad as several days this past week. It was only -24 this morning and we had several days when the thermometer read -27 when I first checked in the morning.
It could be worse, the view out the window is pretty “cool”.
