N.E. Iowa, not far from the Minnesota boarder...
-23 at the homestead this AM, but a balmy -14 in town when I got here.
These darn city dwellers don’t know how good they’ve got it.
Hey CrappieKieth
I heard one of you Minnesota guys put carpet in the bathroom...
Heard he liked it so well that he ran that carpet all the way up to the house.

Gas Company Loves Minnesota
I recall when I used to work for the natural gas company that services northern Minnesota, they used to say that the best customers they had lived there.
It wasn't uncommon for a homeoowner to use 70 Mcf of natural gas in January while heating a 2000 sq ft house. Back then the price was $4/Mcf, and today it's over twice that.
Think of how much firewood you could buy for $560. Around here, that would get you 2 to 3 cords. Shucks, my price is $200 a cord.

I saw on the news it was -46 in International Falls, MN.
Conversely, Boise was +46 - that's a 92 degree difference!

....and to think come morning I'll be out on the lake doing some videos while the boys are ice fishing.
Good thing I got a good portable ice shack and heater.

ArboristSite Operative
Well , I got home from plowing about 7:30 PM last night and did not respect the forecast. We split some chunks and threw them in the OWB and went in. Well it was -7 this morning, water was down to 120 deg and no fire. Lucky it wasn't windy this morning " hey get some cardboard" was the cry.

-30 at 7 this morning, -20 right now. I'm gonna go boil some water and throw it in the air just to see if it actually freezes!

I had to show the wife what a cup of coffee does when you throw it in the air in these kind of temps (she's never done it before) So we went outside and I threw it over the snow banks in the backyard.... "Hey, brown snow falling!"
