-24 and -26 the past two mornings in SE WI. Talked to guys who live in the sticks in northern WI that said they saw -38, that’s without any windchill, -60s with windchills. Absolutely brutal and painful. Wrapping up the extension cord from having the block heater plugged in is comical. This Sunday and Monday it’s supposed to be mid 40s, that’s a 60-70 degree swing, like going from 30 degrees to 90-100.

First pic is the snow drift at my door, the next is at the end of the driveway. I had to wait until the municipal blower came down my road to even think of getting out, good thing I know his cell number a was able to reach out to him!

I love this time of year.
The colder the better, it`s great for business. -24 the other day just means I turn on the heated jacket to high and wear a hat. Not the end of the world like the news would have you believe. I`m dreading this 50* weather in the next few days.. it`s a white beautiful wonderland right now.. rain pisses me off, should be more snow. |

This winter has just been a pile on of the rest of the year. We had the wettest week, month (July of all months) and year on record in these parts. Worse yet we beat the rain record in Mid November with weeks still to go. We also had many un-named wind storms that ripped roofs off of houses this spring. Luckily we got past them with just some shingle damage and all of this was after the winter that never seemed to end last spring. Just re-upped my boat's towing insurance. Got high hopes this year. Fingers are crossed.

I live in slinger, but travel all over the state, MN and da UP for work. It can only get warmer from here right?! I don’t mind it when the temps are in the teens, I can still get out and go for a run in that. Single digits are ok... Any wind gets painful when there’s a dash in front of the number.

Nice, I used to keep my boat up in Jackson off of PV and Division... You boat mostly up in Winnebago?
