So last weekend started off really cold. We got up Saturday morning and it was -14. So Michael decided to try another little test to show just how cold things can get here. Watch the video below and you'll see the water freeze on his truck instantly. So crazy!
Aside from that, we are in the middle of the standard "January thaw"...meaning our highs every day for the next week are 32-34 degrees!! Wahoo! You may think I'm exaggerating with my excitement, but after you've been subzero for a while, it really does get to where 30 isn't too bad. Sure it's still chilly and you need a coat, but my nose doesn't turn red instantly and sting like I have water in it. And the moisture in my nose doesn't freeze. (hmm, i think i may have nose issues)
Our friends Jared & Amber are coming up this weekend from Des Moines - Yea!! Amber and I were emailing today about things to do this weekend and even she said how glad she was it was going to be a "nice" weekend. Who would have thought 3 years ago when we were playing spades with them in Houston that we would be wishing for 30 degree weekends!
The top temp is the outside temp. And yes, that says -13.
