I checked out weather.com and apparently you're enjoying highs in the 20s, even with the wind chill today. I feel better now. The high in Sioux Falls today is 1°F with wind chills at -20°F.<BR/><BR/>I'm crawling back under my covers now.<BR/><BR/>P.S.

It was in the teens this morning when I drove to work!

Nicely done, Alaska. <BR/><BR/>I wonder if it would travel to St. Paul for our Winter Carnival, which is later in January? We're not Wassila, but our high tomorrow is -2.
