Arctic Blast Across Northeast US

[ProfD]

Wind chill factor enough to produce temperatures that feel like -45F degrees.

 

Exposure to sub-zero temperatures can result in frostbite within 5-10 minutes.

 

Stay indoors as much as possible. Dress in layers. Leave a water line open to keep pipes from freezing. 

 

Bundle up and stay warm. This too shall pass in a couple days.

I'm in Michigan.
That ship sailed a week ago...lol.

Every winter we get windchills that low...for DAYS at a time.
Not sure why the media is making such a big fuss out of it now.

Hell, remember the polar vortex of 2013-2014?

The national media is something else.
Something can be going on in the MIdwest or down South  or the Rocky Mountains area and it'll barely get headlines, but if it threatens to affect the East or West Coasts....they start telling "Americans" to brace themselves.

Yeah bro, you're used to that brick weather and already know what to do when it drops down to frostbite.

Yeah, grab a nice big leg tenderoni (or go out and find one....lol) to snuggle up with, along with a couple of glasses and a bottle of Paul Masson....lol.

Maybe put on a little Jodeci featuring Father M.C. if it's cold enough.....lol.
