Well, after the ice storm that crippled the region last week (I still know people without electricity 10 days after the storm), this most recent weekend was filled with snowfall. A foot of it Friday into Saturday, and another ten inches Sunday. Hello, winter! This morning was -7 with the wind chill, brutal!

Christmas in North Dakota usually meant lows of -30.
Christmas here in South Carolina is usually sunny and 52 degrees.

Sounds like SD. We went out Saturday night and it was -14, but the wind wasn't really blowing. I've plugged my car in several times already...and we are just beginning according to calendar dates

We've had 2 blizzards this winter season which only really started in Nov. I've used my 4 wheeler / plow more times this year than I did all of last year. It's going to be a rocky winter.
