Cold enough for 'ya?

Are you sick of hearing that yet? I swear, Minnesota is the ONLY place on the planet where people actually say that when it gets really cold. Just wait, when the mercury hits 100 degrees this summer (its hard to imagine right now!) you will hear "Hot enough for 'ya?" from just about everyone you see. (Remember, Minnesota Nice means that even complete strangers will ask you if it's hot or cold enough for 'ya!)
For those of you from warmer climates, that little dash before the 21.3 means that it is NEGATIVE 21.3 degrees. It hasn't been this cold for a few years.
With the wind, it feels like -35 degrees. Frostbite and hypothermia can set in within 15 minutes. We received 5 inches of snow yesterday with another 3-5 inches expected tonight. I'm so glad I don't have to be out there running the snowblower. Thanks, Mike!!!!
Global warming, my @$$.
