Stay warm today boys, it's a cold one. Cant imagine needing to use an outhouse this morning. I'd end up grabbing a hair and pissing my pants.

As we speak:
Windchill is pegged at -49, high for the day -18. Forecast says it's going to ease up by Friday.
The days are getting longer, this cold snap will pass. Part of the price one pays for living up here.
Edit: Above temp was at 5:30 AM. Current is -34. However, the wind is way down windchill a mere -33.

Jamie called this morning and said the wind chill is -56 currently at the house.
Sounds like perfect weather to go do some group testing... 
Example (not mine, but it would look similar or worse most likely):

I remember coming through Yellowknife Canada in the early 90s and it was -80Don't think that I am able to click "like" reminds me of Fairbanks in the 1950's...
Screw a bunch of that! That's where you break out the little coolant tester and make sure a whole shit-load of balls float! Probably like a 70/30 mix to be safe as well I would imagine.
I’ll participate. Contemplating a rabbit hunt this afternoon, I bet they would just stand there and get shot. 20” of fresh snow to go through if they run so easy shots even then.
Took the Misses to work this morning so her Jeep didn’t have to sit outside all day. We didn’t get as cold as predicted, -24 at sunrise. Early morning sun on the “Hilton” across the street from the courthouse.
I agree. This is ridiculous.
Makes it damn hard to convince Geno to get on the water.

Took my Kestrel out with me while providing the hot breakfast program to my fleet of farm cats. The guys in ND and MN will crush this DA this morning. Sorry for the crappy pic but my hands were getting cool.
I just saw these guys crossing the road, first one has blood running down his face and his right side rack missing...
According to the Internet, this is in Wisconsin.
I wonder if you would stick to it
That, and the ice crystals massacring Mr. Happy
Damn, they look barbed too. Like you'd have to push them on through instead of pulling them out... or just wait for them to melt I guess.
Oh man, I love the old ammo boxes and such. Anything from that era really.
If it's been stored in an old cedar chest - pure nostalgia.

Who woulda thought all these years later that this would be COOL? HA! We did.
Is that cleared area to the East of the new place your range / firewood supply? We will be there in about four weeks to check on progress.
I'm done playing with wood. Probably put a wood stove in the shop at some point, but that's way down the list of things to do. I got neighbors now so I don't think I'm gonna be banging off the porch or out the door or windows anymore, or just not much. We're kinda surrounded by Trees n stuff now.
Yeah we have those here in Wisconsin too...the lampreys and the MIL.
NO WAY. That damn thing is gonna get slaughtered. Hell, I may very well let you put the 1st hole in it. On video of course.

I’m texting 1j damn bear everyday. He knows I don’t sugar coat shit?
Next thing you know you’re carrying a box of them to the match... one 2 missing
We had that same sunset this evening here in North Louisiana. I was driving and couldn’t get a picture of it.
Good Lord! That’s an addiction, in a good way ?
This doesnt hold a candle to some of u up-staters, but its nippy here when the sun is up enough to see critters.
Those 30° temp swings make layers a thing to have.

400 rounds between cleanings seems like the number for this 6.5CM. Anyone else using slip 2000 products? I’ve had good luck and it’s on the shelf at the LGS.
