22 Below

It was only -13°F this morning at my house, but it was a balmy -22° at my co-worker's house in Sunriver this morning. The SROA weather station had the low at its office at -19°F overnight (it's gotten up to -5°F at my office -- here comes the heat wave!). La Pine and Sunriver-area schools were cancelled and there were power outages in some areas. Thank goodness I don't rely on electric heat in my home.

In other words, it's frackin' cold out. You whiners in Portland who are complaining about the cold up there (it's currently 24°F up there), you got nothing on us.

There's no sense in leaving the house if you don't have to. This will help to keep you indoors today.

Stay warm!

Personally, I would've have even got in my car if it were that frickin' cold. My car had a hard time starting at -10, I can only imagine it trying to get going at -26.

It was -20 at my place (not far from Simone), and the RAV4 started right up. I even walked the 100ft to get the newspaper in my bathrobe and slippers. :)

It was -20F when I dropped the kid off at the middle school. Those Commute Options crazies had better not give me a hard time for driving him to school today!!
