You can count on that. I stay close to the fireplace and warm my toes. I don't go outside unless I have to. -55* wind chills here last night and I stayed up till 3AM to watch the house and the wife got up at 5AM to carry on the watch. I can't remember -28* in all the time I have lived in Iowa. Came through with no problems and it sure is nice to not have to get up and go to work. That's the best part of being retired. I don't set the alarm clock unless I have to get up for a reason.
I sure hope we get rid of all this snow. We're running out of places to pile it and more coming, before it warms up.

I remember back in 1969 / 70 while in Germany we would walk on top of the 1 foot of snow all Winter and while pulling duty(Sargent of the guard or crew chief for manning the temps would drop to -45 at night. I can still hear the "crunch" of my foot steps going out to the site!
