In nevada even!! Our temp was 2.2 this morning! And seems our pipes are the only ones around for a distnace that have not frozen through these temps!!
Could it be the kid's leaking toilet that kept them from freezing?... or maybe its the fact that we have a heat lamp in our pump house?...or maybe it is because they are insulated!!!
Anyway you slice it, IT IS COLD!!!!

It was about 7 here when I got up, which is cold but not that bad! It was colder this time last year. I remember waking up to -10 on several mornings last year! And at least it isn't windy! DS wanted to walk to school this morning, so I bundled him up and off he went. I think maybe he'll regret it about halfway there!

I was born and raised in ALaska, My Daddy was a trooper there and I grew up stationed in indian villages in the middle of nowhere!!
I remember goin to school on snow mobiles when you could not see where you were going and with the wind it was -30 to 40 below! But I've been here in the states sine 1988 and I am not used to it anymore!!

Glad you didn't have frozen lines! Thats always a nasty one to battle!
Your storm headed our way.......over night we ended up with about 3 new inches of snow, so its much warmer today at 12 with the cloud cover. We still have a winter storm watch out until later today and this storm is headed on to the east. They are advising people to be prepared for it, its a real nasty one. Look at this to see what area you are in and what you need to look for!
