Well, here in Lafayette, Indiana we have about 14" of snow right now and it is currently 4 degrees Fahrenheit and dropping with a high of -12 and a low of -16 tomorrow not factoring in wind chill. Steady 30 mph winds are giving the city, county, and state a hard time keeping the roads cleared and they ended up shutting our county and many surrounding counties down.

Anybody else snowed in?

We had negative 24°F here with some cool breezes and snow everywhere with a topping of freezing rain today. Just another average winter.

I'm here in central illinois and your storm came through us. Same here. Roads shut down all over and expected wind chill is -42 at 8 am tomorrow and winds like yours. I've never seen temps that low myself.

Neither have I. Ive lived here my whole life so I am used to the cold winter, few inches of snow and occasional days just below 0 (usually with windchill), but this...this I am not used too lol.
 
I got a couple inches of snow that came down sideways and its currently a brisk and breezy 8*.
 
I was sent a text saying to not bother coming in for the 4hr shift I had then spent those 4 hours clearing the driveway and back yard. I work tomorrow, but it will be fawking cold and hopefully that won't kill what business we would get.

That's going to make for an interesting week at work, we get a whole bunch of product from Horizon and Great Planes, wonder how they're doing on shipping things because of this!
 
I fawking WISH we had snow... It's been chilly the last couple weeks and before that it was in the teens for the most part for a month. A foot of snow would be a nice change. :D
 
It warmed up a bit here today (40 degrees) so we got mostly rain, which melted away all the 4" of snow we had on the ground. It turned to snow and gave us a dusting after dark. Now we will get the cold temps, so all that rain that fell will become ice on the ground. Our bitter cold is supposed to hit Monday night with the low predicted around -10. :roll:
 
I've been having a blast driving my wrx around Chicago.
The car is amazing! I backed out of my driveway with at least 12" of snow in it.

Don't know how you guys live in that low temperatures.:shock: I start shivering at 8 degree Celsius and negative is a far away thing for me. I see 4 months of bright sunshine then 4 months of rainfall and then 4 months of cold winter that never goes below 8 degree.
 
-15 here with a fresh 12" of snow. Wondering if my truck will start or if the fuel is Gelled.
 
In central IL here, I don't know what the snowfall was for last night but the temp is -14 degrees starting out the day today. they canceled work for us, which is unbelievable, and I have go out in this cold to clear all the snow before work tomorrow.

I have never seen temps this low so it should be fun. lol
