WOW - worst we got last week was -40F before windchill.  (With 
windchill -63F).

Where you from ?

I have seen -50F here, but not very often - only happens occasionally, 
perhaps once in 3-5 years.  We get some -40F  pretty much every year.

We don't get much snow here (14 inches is a lot for one snowfall here).

The weather here finally broke last Wednesday after a long stretch of cold - 
got to +30F today - melting snow like crazy in the sun (but still frozen in 
the shade) - was actually above freezing yesterday for a couple of hours.

Frank,
