Polar Vortex

All schools in the area called off both today and tomorrow. Lots of businesses called off as well. Including mine. My car sits in a unheated attached garage so it’s still over 30. Starting no problem. Recently replaced both battery and starter so pretty sure had I gone in the thing should start after sitting out for 8+ hours. Just happy I didn’t have to test it.

And yes. I know as temps go in some of the northern states, this is nothing. But really cold for us might get to a -15 for a day or two. Normal for this part of Illinois is actually 20-30 this time of year.

But hey. Gives us all something to talk about for a few days.
 
Pops went to the Bahamas to escape the cold this week.
That ol' boy gets around.
 
It was -35 degrees F at my mother’s place this morning.

That’s a tad on the chilly side.
