Even as far south as we are it's cold. Mid 20's in Mid Mississippi is crazy. I had to wear gloves today when chopping Aluminum to size.

"South for the winter" is getting further South every year as I get older.

Here in the Des Moines area it's projected to be a low of -17 and a high of -6 on Monday. I'm sure it will be much colder in Minnesota. It'll be a little "brisk".

We are camped in the Airstream tonight near Tampa, Florida. It is 38 degrees here. I know it doesn't sound like much, but that's really cold for here.

It was 55 here today. But the temp will drop 74 degrees by Monday morning.
We live in the Panhandle of Nebraska.
Just completed the repair of the 40 year old refer in my Argosy.
It is now back in the coach and the cabinets are back in place.
Wanted to get it done.
Yeh never know when you might want to hitch up and go somewhere.

I grew up in Rockaway NJ so I can relate to the cold, but... it is REALLY cold down here in Tampa. At least since I became a full time Floridian. Low 40's here this morning. Up to mid 70's today. BRRRRR!

I'm also in Vermont. We already had the ice storm the week before Christmas and it's still here. Ever ice skated on your lawn? I'd rather have more snow than rain so we won't get more ice.

OK all you Florida Airstreamers. In a month or so I'm coming down so lets warm things up a bit. The 30's just won't cut it. I could stay home if I wanted that.

My son back in Mays Landing says frozen water pipes back there. Afraid this is just a sneak preview of Sunday-Tuesday. It's bad when they close the schools in Minnesota for Mon. Good luck. Sal

Sneakinup..I am in Denville, next town over, not too many Airstreams around here, but a few.

sb55-I grew up camping in South Hero, VT, there was a campground and cottages, next to a small gold course by the ferry slip. Went there many many years. Happy memories.

It was -7°F here yesterday morning, but up to 28° today. We're really appreciating our fireplace insert these days!

Low here tonight projected to be -18F, and worse through Tuesday. The state governor already closed the public school system state wide for Monday due to cold temps and wind chills projected to be up to -60F (that's MINUS 60 degrees F). We (and half the rest of the city) replaced the battery in our truck today as insurance against the cold. It was 5 years old.
The weathermen are calling it an "old fashioned Minnesota winter". My dad would say "it's colder than a well diggers butt". I agree with Dad.

Others might say, "It's colder than a witch's ...!"

Per CNN, "Arctic blast dropping temperatures in U.S. to lows not seen in years".
