I bet you’re devastated

I think we used to call these Alberta Clippers around here. They're saying it's our coldest temps since 1990. It won't save me from in-laws though.

Damn, I saw this thread and thought Tempo took my advice about starting the up your asshole thread. Saw the “WTF is up the polar vortex” title and knew it HAD to be him!! 😂

IIRC 2012 was notable for winter drought. We usually get a couple of these types of fronts a season. This week's is supposed to be very intense but fast moving, 50 today, high of -4 on Thursday, and then back to 50 for Christmas. Drastic fluctuation is not uncommon but the trees hate it.

Early January 2014 was a notable PV, just remember it specifically because my older child was born as it rolled in.

That's why I remember 1990. My first was just born and I returned from a work trip right before Christmas to spend 2 hours with a hair dryer in my crawlspace defrosting pipes. Unforgettable.

In the same way people in Green Bay were impacted by Kyle Rittenhouse, by getting emails from their friends asking if they are OK and saying what?

I've driven through and worked in some brutal winter weather; Alberta Clippers, near blizzards, ice storms.

True Americans suffer instead of avoid suffering, and are proud of it. Congrats, Patriot

Well yeah, when you’ve been on this earth for like 175 years, it’s hard to avoid going through some shit.

I think I know what you are saying. Driving to work, or for work, in unsafe conditions seems to have been part of the traditional work ethic. I am not sure it still is.
I have known many who were proud of it. Can't say I ever was. I have gotten over any resentment. There is always a choice.
These days, if there is any chance of blowing snow; my car does not leave the driveway. And I don't even have a driveway.

Don't worry, Nichi, I'm sure Murph rode his bike to work in the rain when it was 70 degrees once. If it was was under 70, he was driving his gas guzzling SUV, claiming all the bike riding he did was a carbon offset.
