I think we set a record here it got down to 13 last night and snowed again to day that's two days in a row and really unusual where most year we don't have any. It is supposed to be up in the 50's tomorrow so things will go back to normal. Lee

Well I just checked and our night time low (and I am not talking wind chill) was -34.4º F. There seems to be no wind. My computer is telling me we have warmed up a lot though.. all the way to -26ºF so it looks like a good day. Actually the sunny side of the house says -18º F. Amazing what a little sun shine can do.
So you goin' shootin'?? ;D

-16.5F here, cold enough for me....I wanted to get out for a run this morning just to say I did but stayed up too late.

Hope it warms up decently next week, I hope to have my new bullets and sabots in to test...

I just looked at the historical data for Petawawa for last year. We had 4 months without snow.

The Duluth News Channel in their weather report said the had a town in Minnesotathat reported -47ºF last night. That's just too cold. The neighbor up the road has -38ºF but it finally warmed up. They are talking only -5ºF tonight. That's a piece of cake...
