A bitter and dangerous blast of arctic air is charging its way across almost the entire nation this week, dropping wind chills to as low as between negative 50 and negative 70 degrees across the Northern Plains and 30 below zero in the Midwest, triggering rare Hard Freeze Warnings along the Gulf Coast, and helping fuel a monster winter storm that will bring frigid temperatures across the Great Lakes and Northeast.
... Thursday morning temperatures will be as cold as negative 29 degrees in Casper, Wyoming, with 23 degrees below zero likely in Billings, Montana – likely the city's coldest temperature in 25 years, according to the FOX Forecast Center. Meanwhile, snow and strong winds will begin to batter the Great Lakes region.

A good friend of mine lives in Billings, MT. He works outdoors at the airport.
Finally, some nice weather.
Hopefully tomorrow he doesn’t...
... and it’s only December.
I didn't know God came that cheap?
Now these clowns say freezing weather is a product of “climate change”. I feel like punching them in the face. Did you know the record high temperatures for all 50 states in the USA were set decades ago? One state even as far back as the late 1800s, Oregon it hit 119F back in 1898. How is that possible if the global temp is rising? I like to point this out to leftists.......

Hahahaha suckers...its only -18F in Northern Idaho, which is common and tolerable.
Oh noes, it’s the winter solstice today. 😱🥶😱 It’s weather, BFD.
It’s called winter.
Freezing weather is obviously due to globull warming!!
Guess we here in Texas get to see if our grid will hold up.
Prepare to die.
We’ll be driving west into it tomorrow.
Business as usual.
My son is a trucker. Same business as usual
They’ll close the airport
It’s cold in the winter? Who knew?
Here in Denver at 4:30 PM, the temps were 45 degrees.
Now, four hours later, it’s snowing and reading -1 degree.
It’s like Cartman said:
“Here in Colorado, we have two seasons. Winter and July.”
It never got cold in the winter before global warming.
“Yes Little Johnny, wind farms can operate reliably in below-freezing temperatures. However, wind turbines may require cold weather packages that provide heat to turbine components, including the blades, gearbox, pitch motors, battery, and yaw. This allows wind farms to operate in temperatures down to -30° Celcius (-22° Fahrenheit).”
“Gee Mr Wizard, Where do wind turbines get the heat?”
“Well Liitle Johnny, we use electricity to generate heat so that the wind turbine can work at low temperatures.”
”Gee Mr Wizard it’s going to get very, very cold, what then?”
”Say your prayers Little Johnny...... say your prayers”
