Twenty Below

-29°C
A photo of the thermometer off of my sunporch on Thursday morning, January 15, 2009. It used to be this cold on many many mornings. Last winter it only happened a couple of times. On Friday morning, it was -22°F (-30°C) here in Barton but in Sutton it was -45°F (-43°C). We think that was the state record for that night. Today it is 22°F (-5.5°C) and snowing. Of course, it never really has stopped snowing. Our snow cover is great.

The bad news? Still no Internet!! So here I am in the library on Martin Luther King Day. The modem has not arrived and when it does, we still have to call Comcast to have them climb the pole to turn it on. AARRRGGGHHHH!

  1. Wow that's cold. I just can;t get my head around that cold.

    I live in a temperate mediterranean climate on the west coast of Australia.

    Very occasionally in mid winter the temp will drop to 0 degrees C (32F).

    Well at least you have the snow to enjoy. That's something I can only dream about.
