Anchorage set a record yesterday with a smoldering 49° temperature. As I write this, it's 5:30 AM and 35° at my house. This weather sucks ass!!!

I think it was -17 here in Central MN last night. We are suppose to hit a high of 13 this afternoon, then back down to -20 tonight and not above zero all weekend. I've lived here all my life (47 years) and remember a lot more snow and some cold back in the 70s and 80s, but never this cold for this long. We are known for cold temps in the state, but I don't think we've had five days in the 20s all winter. We've had 50 some days of sub-zero temps this winter so far and a lot of days it didn't get above zero for a daytime high. Time to move!

Only -17......I thought you guys got to -40 or something with the last cold front that moved through. The way everyone was talking up there you'd of thought it was the north pole. We even hit -17 here this year, coldest I've seen here in years. Yesterday was in the 60's.......today supposed to be the same.

its 9 now here in west central WI. It was -4 when I drove to work this morning. Its been so cold for so long I didnt even think it was bad this morning. I usually enjoy the winter but this year sucks, too cold to do anything outside and everyone inside is sick. I need to become a sno-bird and move to Arizona for the winter.

This isn't as cold as it was a month ago. We had air temps in the -25 to -30 range with wind chills in the -50 to -60 range. It's 8 right now with no wind and feels like a heat wave. We're normally in the mid 30s this time of year.

At about the same time Troutbum had 35* in Anchorage (5:30am), we had 30* in Kenai AK. Nasty roads since it was raining at 10:30 last night. Still 30 now at 8:20. Supposed to hit 39 today.

Bend oregon it is 37 and partly cloudy. It has been freezing rain and fog for a few days so this is very nice. It always amazes me how warm 40 can be if it is sunny. I did christmas in south east mn that was cold.

I got word from my family that it was -25 this morning back in my hometown of Harrisville, MI.

Feeling lucky it was 42 here in Portland this morning!
