<div>Geez. I can't believe it has already been 12 years since that cold, and following floods. Now I'm feeling my age. Thanks for bringing that up.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I grew up in Havre, MT. 45 below was not an unusual days high during the winter, and the wind almost never stopped. I once went camping at 30 below (I've gotten smarter as I've aged.) During school I'd go out over lunch to start the car, and let it idle long enough to warm-up, even though I had the radiator insulated and an engine heater plugged in. Coldest I ever saw was 65 below. That was simultaneously the days high and low! The oil in my car froze. If you spilled water on the ground it froze. Instantly.

<div>Havre gets so cold that the high school football team is called the "Blue Pony's." </div>

<div>Anybody ever heard of a nosecicle? Ever have one?</div>

<div><font face="Arial">During a six-year stint of living in Richmond, VA, my wife and I always chuckled when forecasters would use what became a stock cliche of "bitter cold" when the low was 20 or so. It would literally spawn a run on milk and bread at the grocery stores.

<div><font face="Arial">On the other side, does anyone recall 12 years ago today and tomorrow here in Moscow? We were living at the base of Moscow Mountain with a one-day-old baby. The temps were, at our house, recorded by an accurate Taylor max/min thermometer, in the -30's F with two feet of fallen snow. The drifts were so intense that I did not need a ladder to walk up to the roof to remove ice dams (yes it was that kind of house) with an axe and shovel. The later floods (Feb, I think) took out our driveway to the tune of an 18-inch channel twelve inches wide-- thank goodness for road graders with whom you have developed a friendship!

<div><br> </div>OK, like, once when I was growing up in Tucson the high was way low, like maybe 24. And the heater in the Rambler kinda didn't even work real well. Yeah. Whoa.<br><br>(People from the Southwest never have good weather stories . . . )
