No kidding. I was wearing thick gloves and after about 5 minutes of shoveling my fingers started to go numb... this cold sucks :)

I was unfortunate enough to be stationed in North Dakota and 20-30 below zero was considered the tropics.

It's Bush's fault. If he had signed onto the Kyoto treaty, we wouldn't have global warming causing all of this cold weather.
Think I can get one of the democratic candidates to hire me?

Big Rock ski resort in Maine closed for a second straight day. General manager Tim Prather said it was minus 12 by midday, which felt like 37 below with the wind. "That's pretty brutal when you're going up a lift," he said. Sissies! I've skiied Searchmont in Sault Ste. Marie Canada at 20F below. Granted, you could only ski about 30 minutes at a time before going into the lodge to get some high fat, high calorie food...

Where is our daily weather report from atop Mt. Washington?
Sunny & mild, with light southerly breezes, I'd wager...

LOL - we see this at least once per year here in Colorado. At least for us it doesn't stick around very long.

I like this weather. It is currently -8 degrees in my backyard and it is going down to at least -15 tonight. I went out today for a 4+ mile walk around noontime in which it was about 3 degrees above zero. Very invigorating, provided you are dressed properly (I was).
I am pumping water out of my basement due to the unusually high water table this year. There are now sheets of ice and very unusual ice formations in my yard due to the pumped out water freezing almost instantly.
Being in New England, I get all sorts of weather. 95 degrees and high humidity in July and August. Snowstorms in winter with subzero cold. And everything in between. And I like it that way.

The outdoor thermometer on our back porch currently says -20. It's supposed to go down to -23 in Montpelier tonight, but we'll probably get close to -30 up where we are. Extraordinarily, it isn't even clear tonight, as it usually is when it's this cold, so we may get -30 with snow showers while it blows 20mph out of the Northwest. Very strange.
I finally got a replacement part for my snowblower's augur control, which broke a couple of weeks ago, but it's too cold to do much snowblowing right now.

Yup, got a little chilly today and yesterday, suppose to be worse tommorrow.
I spent the day outside thawing out my Jeep. My coolant was good till today. It froze up on my wife early this afternoon. Thank God I have the warm gear.

Fine, powdery snow fell across much of the region, with the mercury dipping into the single digits in some places, and 20 and 30 degrees below zero in others So much for it being "too cold to snow."
