This was in a certain place in my state yesterday.

3/11/17
Max Wind Chill happened at 9:00 AM and was - 86.9F.
Max Wind gust happened at 3:00PM and was 115mph.

Plus,
Our local ice races where out running today.

My bay still has 20" thick ice near the middle.

I think that spring may be frozen to the ground for a little while.

I'm guessing your state in NH . . . . . . and that's a fairly typical day this time of year.

You're not alone. It's winter here now and we've been feeling a bit of a cold spell lately, especially night time.
