Frigid


We have been having some frigid weather here in Eastern Pennsylvania the past few days. Today the high was only 11 and now it is down to 0. That is cold for this area. This was posted on a message board, I thought is was pretty good.

I know there are a lot of people out there that have 30 degree and below weather from late November till well into spring. But I'm not liking this weather at all.
