The polar cold front shattered the previous one-hour temperature drop record in Cheyenne, Wyoming, on Wednesday, with temperatures plummeting from 43 degrees to 3 degrees between 1:05 p.m. and 1:35 p.m., the National Weather Service in Cheyenne said. The previous record was a 37-degree drop in one hour.
The agency warned at the time that temperatures were still dropping.
In a span of two hours, the winter chill dropped temperatures across southeast Wyoming by 51 degrees, from 42 degrees to -9 degrees, the NWS said.

Don’t tell any libs but Prescott, AZ - just an hour and a half north of Phoenix (the big city) - “The Mile High City” is beautiful just the right size and up in the granite mountains. Warm summers, occasional snow in the winters.
RE is expensive - trust me - wait for the crash.
Go bother my lib family. Thanks in advance. ;-)
Funny thing - we’re at 34 degrees in Florida and they’re at 34. Weird. No snow yet. ;-)
In a warm state, I’ve read of EV types having to turn of the A/C and even their running lights, radio, etc. when running low on juice but your gas powered vehicles always have heat as soon as the engine warms up. The EVs don’t have that benefit.
Cold & running low on juice? Turn off your heat! ;-)
Like every truly great artist, he transcends politics. Robin Williams, Charlie Chaplin, Dick van Dyke, all left leaning, but you can love their art regardless.
I try hard, but there are times I have been unable to do that. But I try.
Van Dyke, I think, takes less effort to like than the other two. He trips over the ottoman, he makes those faces, he dances both skillfully and with feeling...nothing political about that.
I really dig Woody Guthrie, and he was an outright communist. Even so, he gives a voice to an era, just like Kipling did to imperial Britain, or Homer did to the Trojan War. It’s something personal to him, and that makes him more than just one man who survived the Dustbowl and the Depression. He’s everyone of that time.

Well, isn't that what the JAs say about 'saving the planet'?
("Turn down the heat")
It serves them right. Let them eat ice. /s
Did you catch that BS article yesterday which was promoting engine damage for prewarming/idling ICE vehicles?
The auto service company notes that idling your engine could damage it while minimizing the car's fuel efficiency, which is harmful to the environment due to fumes emitted from the engine that pollutes the air.At the end they decided to add insult to injury by coldly informing readers that if they didn't lay out the $7-1000 for a Level 2 charger that they were SOL of sorts in terms of a warm car & expected range.
