All roads closed, white out blizzard in Minnesota today. Computer claims the wind chill is
-57 degrees, but what does he know. He never sets foot outdoors. Merry Christmas all. James

Just got a voicemail from Republic, requesting trash be put out tonight cause the weather's gonna create poor conditions and the trash truck is gonna have a long slow night in S/E Pa. I wouldn't want to wreck a garbage truck. Peace Roy
Not a happy camper here with my trash collecting company. I just got notice today that after the first of the year the monthly rate goes from 15$ to 25.50$. The politicians here locked in a five- year contract for us.
I'm guessing the price of fuel almost doubling since the contract was last renewed may have something to do with the rate increase.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

It's a -5 with wind-chills of -22 here in Kentucky. While that's nothing compared to many places you guys are from, that's freak'n cold for this state.

I was reading on our local neighborhood gossip site and the Village Hall pols said that it was their lowest bid, and the rate increase is due to China is no longer accepting recyclables from the United States, which the trash companies were making their money.

Thanks @air4mdc Turned out to be an easy fix for them. Fan was bad so it would not allow the furnace to kick in.
The cardboard flips will not get burned today.
Glad you're up and running. Those AC fans (Blower and induction motors) have a huge amperage draw on start- up, when they get tired, they won't draw the power to operate. I just had my furnace cleaned and inspected last week thank goodness. And why do these things always break down on holidays and the coldest days? Never fails. Keep warm!
Temp as of this writing is 6 degrees F here in CT, one of the benefits of frigid conditions, you'll know the strength of your car battery when you start it, just saying.
Windchills in the negatives here the last couple days. Its 11am with a -17 windchill at the moment. Just spent an hour shoveling and I'll probably be thawing out for a bit yet..lol

I have seen your proof gold. It could be 10 degrees out and I’d still be sweating if viewing those.
My Goal of 2023 is to find a proof gold coin.

Over here in Buffalo it’s about 1 degree with a -24 windchill. Going to be CRH though!

At 18 degrees we now have “freezing rain” or as I call it “ice” from the sky.
The Subarus WRX’s are having a blast! Rally style.
Bridgeport ca 13 degrees right now.
Hoard the keys.
