    It was 40F this morning just before sunrise, it's warmed up to 45F now.

    It's raining.

    -5 here in STL at 6:30 on the way to work this morning. Clubman started fine, but heard some new rattles from the barn doors.

    On the way home it had warmed to about 20, but the roads turned from snow pack, to ice. Had to put an egg between my foot and the go/stop pedals. To bad more folks ventured out today, or it could have been fun out there;)

    +3 here this morning. It warmed all the way up to a balmy +17 as the day wore on. I was doing much the same as our buddy Dave...chasing and fixing busted water pipes all day long. Thankfully it was for work instead of my house. Warren Buffett can afford the repairs better than I can....

    Colder than a well digger's ass in the Klondikes...

    We made it out from 60 contiguous hours of sub-zero today. Got up to 5 F at the max. Woo hoo. No records here (Mpls) and we have infrastructure for such stuff, but I really feel for the folks in the Southern clime. Frozen pipes and crappy heat everywhere. Total bummer.

    Put heaters in the garage last night, they didn't do much but they did enough. Started with nary a problem this morning.

    25 Here, I even went out today. Drove the MINI too, started right up. Ran a little rough, but a judicious use of the throttle cleared it up.
