Cold ... ccccold

This morning, I had a call from someone who told me that his car's thermometer said it was 32 degrees BELOW ZERO while he was driving through a rural area in McHenry County.

Okay, I grew up in the Chicago area, and remember the big snow in 1978, and the deep freeze the winter 1981-2, but this is ridiculous.

First we have snow, snow and more snow, then this brrrr cold stuff! What's up? It's almost enough to make someone a global warming doubter...

I actually saw a cartoon earlier in the week that said: "Yea, long-term I'm worried about global warming, but today I'm worried about freezing my *ss off!"
