It's Fahrenheit. -52 converted to Celcius.

Well, we had wind-chill of -49C here when we were going through our cold snap.

My uncle, who lives a few miles north of the Arctic Circle, said that they had a heat up!! It got up to -49. He thought maybe it had gotten up into the -20's, but it wasn't quite that warm.

And yes those are the sorts of words he used.

Geez..and it's going to be 55 F here in PA/NY today! What a crazy winter!

I bet they aren't pulling any ticks off dogs out there.
I admit I am enjoying these mild temps, but last night I found a tick on Lakota grrrrrrr! I always felt safe from ticks in January, guess not.

I would never make it! That is frightening cold! MO was 124 degrees warmer than Alaska yesterday!

Whoah, now that's cold! It was 64 degrees here yesterday and supposed to be 65 today. I'll take this weather over that any day, LOL!
