    Extremely cold with a sustained 20 MPH wind in NE Wisconsin. Got the woodstove cranking! Even the USPS has suspended deliveries today!

    The below zero temperatures are not so bad to work in as long as there is no wind and you're active. Not sure I'd want to be roofing though!

    The worst looks like the indoor area. 61 is not comfortable indoors. Hope you are able to raise that at least 10 degrees.

    Anyone ever wonder why those digital thermometers display temps with the decimal included??? When it's really cold, or really hot who can tell???:jaw:
