We have not been out since Friday,Jan. 13. Since then snow and ice have meant that people out in the country here (east Tennessee ) only go out for serious emergencies. Mail delivery sort of resumed on Thursday. But not for everyone.

We knew it was coming. Husband brought a lot of firewood from back by the barn to much closer to the house. I cooked and froze a lot of meals that could be heated on our propane stove top.

We haven't lost electricity so far, but I really wouldn't like this for three solid months.

it was a high of 37 and breezy here in tLandmass.

A bit colder than S LA. I cleaned my truck today in a flannel shirt and jeans.

It was chilly this morning but fine by 10am to me.

But I love this shite. Yeah -20 sucks big time, but I'd also be good with never seeing 90+ degrees in my lifetime

People that prefer the freezing arse cold over scorching hot summer are weirdos and probably on a watch list somewhere.

You’re telling me you would rather have THREE months of FREEZING weather (32 degrees and lower) over a hot summer?

Like what the frick do you do outside in the south when it’s this cold besides hunt?

Walk?

Build a fire? Whoop dee doo

Some of you may work outside with 17 layers of cloths on. Sounds fun.

I literally cannot think of anything else.

Absolutely. Also probably true on the watch list.

I think there's a level of cold that's not worth the trade off like Northern Minnesota, but I also think the Deep South is just the opposite of that climate during the summer and about equally as miserable.

To me, somewhere in the middle would be ideal - Virginia, North Carolina etc

So bad road conditions and frozen pipes for 3 months? I’ll take the hot summer anyway.

Give me the cold for 3 months instead of the heat for 6-8 months. You'll typically still get your summer weather for 3 months anyway. People who don't like to experience all 4 seasons are abnormal.
