This reminds me of an old-fashioned Minnesota winter. 30-inch berms along my driveway. Three-foot berms along the streets. Snow mounds over your head. Nothing like snow along the Great Lakes, but a real January, with days at a time where the high is below zero.

Strangely enough, today was the coldest I have felt. Late this afternoon it was five or six above, but with a fresh breeze out of the northwest, and a lot of moisture in the air. Ungloved hands would sting in about a minute; much more uncomfortable than -25° in still air. It's not just the wind, it's the humidity.
