Not much wind which is good thing. You remember January 1982? They still haven't settled on the official consensus of -60 windchill - regardless, it was d*mn cold. That day is what I use to admit it is cold outside. It might be cool, brisk, or invigorating otherwise but in my mind, it isn't cold unless windchill (or heaven forbid temperature) is -60 or below. I worked 3rd shift. I remember the seat in my car did not give when I got in. The V-8 did start, a bit begrudgingly, but it started. Helped I had a pretty full gas tank. Couldn't plug in the block heater at work.
