    Here in central IL, too. Wind chill is said to be -11 right now. I can't verify that because I'm not getting out from under my afghan to go outside.

    i don't know how you all did that. i think lower central michigan has just gotton down to 10 degrees F. and that was for just 2 or 3 nites. a couple weeks back. yes, there are cold fronts coming down out of canada and going straight south to Mo and Ark. where are you from Blytheville? lived there for l0 yrs as a military brat.

    We are a balmy -29C this morning, going up to a high of -18C this afternoon and then it's plunging back down to -30C tonight.

    It's almost bikini weather for the polar bears!! LOL

    It must be banned and done away with.

    Especially considering all your cold weather is headed my way this weekend. :( If anything, this weather is a good reason to keep quilting -- keeping North America warm!

    Marsye, is that the real temp at your house? If so, you'd better have the heat cranked up! That's cold!!
