It's 3 here, -9 with a mild windchill.

Usually in January we see at least a week of sub-zero temps (without any windchill) the lowest I remember is like -46 a few years back. I had two vehicles, a fuel injected Celica and an Olds with a 4BB. That's when you realize the value of a fuel injected vehicle over a carb.

Ya well,


I woke up this morning, I couldnt see out my windows because I had frost on the INSIDE of them. I soon realised just how cold it was.


-37 F


Thats the actual temp. Its the coldest morning on record for 20 years.

The wind chill was -53. So Im thinking to day is going to suck. As I go out to pre-warm my pick-up, I find a flat tire.


Coldest morning in 20 years + first flat since 1993 = Devine intervention.


Thats right, Its official. GOD hates me...............

Yep. These two speak the truth. And oldnnew, I remember you saying you worked for NYSDOT. Where do you work out of? I work summers out of the N Erie Res in Depew.

Well I guess I can't really complain about our weather. You guys sound like you got it bad. Come to the Yukon. It's only -8C daytime, -28C night time. Forecast -3C tomorrow, then hover between -18C to -21C for the next week.

-53? Yup, that's cold enough to freeze the ***** of'n a brass monkey.
