Girl, you need to come back up to WVa. The temps have been all over the place but nothing below the teens and today was in the 40's. You can keep your horses at my place. Hope you all stay warm.

If WV was nicer I might! Thankfully besides a few months of cold I love everything else about minnesota.

-74 is the wind chill factor not actual temps.  Actual will probably be -20's

I live in NE Texas, born and raised here, and I personally  think anything below 60 is to cold.  I would never make it in the northern states.  Like Southtxponygirl said, It's all good except in the dead of summer, and I have learned how to live in it because I always have lived in it.

Once it hits -15 it all feels the same to me.

 -74 takes your breath away when you step outside and hurts your lungs. Don't cover your face and your skin will freeze within minutes. We've had -25 as the actual air temp without wind chills already this year.

BRRRR.  The last time I visited home, the coldest it got was 1 degree.  It was 1-16 and that was TOO cold for me!  I can't even imagine the negatives!!

I'm with you. 60s is good, 70s better and 80s is perfect. I do not do cold. If I'm hot I can cool off but if I'm cold I'm miserable.

The sun is shining and it is a beautiful 55 degrees here in Northeastern Oklahoma. I am wearing a t-shirt today, but tomorrow will be 39 for a high, and then dropping even lower than that. You have to LOVE Oklahoma weather. Changes daily around here.

Prayers for your family, friends and animals. I hope everyone stays warm and safe.

It was in the low 20's the other day when I ran to town for groceries.  There were a handfull of people running around in shorts.  
I'm hoping since December has been colder than normal that January will be warmer?

I would love if this was the bottom and we were on our way up but they are projecting the whole winter will be this way. It felt amazing out yesterday and this morning but it's back to the deep freeze now :( I'm just hoping we have a decent spring unlike this past year.

-74, wow, I would never go outside.  I can't even imagine that.   I am outside Houston and have the mild winters also. Our summer heat used to get to get to me but since losing weight I don't mind it.   Most of our races are held in the evenings during the summer, nice and pleasant.

It was 42 degrees here yesterday and it felt like spring had sprung... we spent lots of time outdoors.  Today it is -6 degrees with a wind chill of -20, and we are only supposed to get colder and colder over the next 2-3 days.   :-(  Brrrr!
