Minus 10 degrees with a wind chill of minus 26. Brad, Ian says he found his snow shoes and is on his way to visit you. :confused:

If he hurries maybe freebullet will take him hunting!

I did some shopping with my mother last night, it isn't nice out there. It was down to 3° withna 15-20 mph wind. It wasn't brutal but it was getting close.

It will no doubt make you feel better to know it isn't much better here. 62 yesterday afternoon, 14 and dropping right now. Fortunately though no wind.

No wind, I wish. We are expected to hit 14 today, a balmy zero with wind chill.

For those who want to know how lube does at these temps, I don't care. I know how I do at these temps. The lube isn't an issue of the guns don't leave the house in this temperature range.

Eleven degrees this AM. Bella the Boxer wanted no part of it. Did her business in record time. Windy through the night. Knocked over one of the 4' X-mas tree decorations, on the front porch.........that were weighted down with rocks. Might have to switch to ingots.o_O

Use Ricks ingots, he will never notice them missing.

At large, whereabouts unknown.
But our temps will triple today, all the way to a balmy 16 degrees above! Monday will double even that, and Tuesday will double even Mondays temps. By the end of the week, it's be about 220F if it continues at this rate.

Brad & I live roughly an hour apart.

I could be happy with 25 and sunny. Just clear the ice off the roads so I can continue with life.

And if we do hit 220°F I'm sure Ian will visit, he is used to that kind of temps. I just hope he doesn't bring his neighbors

Crazy weather here. It was right at 70 about 10pm. The wind blew like crazy all night.

This morning I woke up to 32 and ice on everything.

It is however bright, sunny, and deceptive in Omaha this a.m. Seen a whole lot
worse, not complaining. Think I will load 357's today.

I need to finish some Christmas shopping. After that shot I see some lathe time and ammo loading. I need to load some 45 ACP and 9 mm to see how the throating works out in my barrels.

I started to click the like button....then I realized that I are one of Ian's "neighbors".

Oh, I meant some very specific neighbors. You aren't an issue at all.

it was suppose to be windy last night...luckily we didn't get much wind, to blow around the 8" of fluffy snow that fell 36 hours ago...and it's up to -17º (that's up from -20 which was kinda close to the record). and just to clarify, I never talk "wind chills", I only speak in actual temperature.
