I stopped walking to work, -50c is too cold for that.

And I didn't shovel the sidewalk of my whole block, just the part in front of my house.

It's -5°F over here in Chicago, supposed to hit a high of 2°F later today. Wife and I are working from home, so we're both ok. We care for a feral cat that spends the winter months in a wooden cat house with a bed and plug-in heating pad that my wife installed on the back deck a few years ago. I'm always worried about that cat, she's getting older and isn't as spry as she used to be.

In about six, seven months it's gonna be 100° warmer, which is wild to me.

The snowblower froze up (specifically the mechanism that turns the spout) so I had to drag it into the house to warm it up. The plug cap on my headbolt heater also froze solid. I couldn't bring the car into the house to warm it up because, among other things, I already had the snowblower in there. I spent 20 minutes with a heat gun prying it off instead.

Aside from that it was a normal weekend.

Upgraded my HVAC yesterday. BRING IT NATURE!!! Hahah

Too harsh?! It's lovely! -20 where I'm at and it's awesome 😎

Man, my house needs sealed better, or maybe it's just finally time to bite the bullet and move. My rent's cheap, house is shit, landlords mostly forget we exist but there aren't tons of problems normally...except when windchill hits and gets in the negatives, then my kitchen is a whole different climate than the rest of the house and I know it's costing me in heating

I can cope with many layers and staying inside, but my poor old dog is miserable.

Fine, born and raised Midwest so switching from 55f to -4f in the space of a week or two is no big deal, it’s supposed to be 50 and raining next week despite it being 1 and snowing today lol

Already had one power outage, another is on the way.

I actually kinda like power outages. They're sort of an adventure.

The only gut-punch is that I've been looking for work for a while now. Hoping on a miraculous break-through soon. But I had to ask for money from friends for non-perishables.

Hit a snowbank with my car, so kinda shitty. Damage isn't too bad, but it's fucked up my morning.

Sprinkler in the attic burst due to the cold and flooded 10 condos including my own. Great way to relax on a Sunday night, losing a battle to water rushing in from vent, sprinkler heads, lighting fixtures. Currently living out of a Best Western while they are drying out my apartment. Next step demo and restoration, yay.

I had to pry my car door open yesterday because it was frozen shut. I also couldn't open my window when I went through the drive up pharmacy.

Took two personal days because I can’t get out of my driveway and it’s not safe to stay out to shovel until Wednesday (when the temps and windchill will finally be above negative). Haven’t been out of the house since Thursday, but I have plenty of food, internet, and things to do.

It's -3 this morning. It used to be a fairly regular temperature during winter, so I'm doing alright. The reason it's so bad though is this winter up to this weekend has been in the 40s, extremely warm for the season.

I've lived in an area that gets cold every year my whole life so it's kinda strange to me to see people struggling with cold.

Don't get me wrong I feel for them because the cold sucks but I just can't wrap my head around not knowing how to stay warm because you've never had to before.

Like it seems intuitive to know how to stay warm but I also know that's only because I've been doing it my whole life ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

It hit around -60c or -76f for the Americans. I spent hours outside looking for the neighbors cat, :(

We've had some highs in the single digit negative (F). I'm lucky enough that I can just stay in. This isn't terribly unusual weather for this time of year. The rest of this season has been so warm it feels like a bigger deal than it is.

Outdoor temperatures have been between -10C and -29C for the last few weeks, I don't think it's going to get really cold here this year.

Cold doesn't really bother me, I don't normally even wear a jacket if it's warmer than -20C. Woollen sweater and a warm vest will do just fine.

2/3s of my city had power outages. Not from the snow, but from fallen trees because of strong winds. I was lucky and had power.

Stayed home with a portable heater with my kids and family. Surprised they didn't want to go play in the snow, and mostly played video games together.

We were just finally coming out of the cold snap, it warmed back up to around -20C, and my power steering line went -_-

I have thermal underwear, thick flannel shirts, a heated vest, and thermal coveralls. It feels like a mild spring day when I go outside.

It's -4°F this morning before the wind chill. I put the shell on my jacket so I have a hood and my hair won't freeze. I start the car at least 10 minutes before going anywhere. I give the steering wheel a good minute to warm up once I'm in the car, since that doesn't turn on until I push the button.

So, yeah, it's not too bad if you're a bit boogie.

The house I'm renting leaks like a sieve, though. I'm up to 7 blankets and a comforter at night.

Impromptu week long vacation. At least I have food.

it's alright. Got my carhartt overalls on and a good coat. it's about -2 now.

Capital District of New York, here. Weather isn't out of the ordinary for a typical January (yet). I did crank the pellet stove up a few degrees just to help heat the house a little better. I'll burn through more bags that way, but it's better than supplementing with electric heat.
