Cold Michigan
Well, I didn't think it was all that cold. I remember many Michigan mornings in January and February as a kid when temps hit -30 and lower so To me it seemed to be more normal temps. Keep in mind the past few years we have experienced above normal temps for winter so the cold wave that hit would seem to be abnormally cold. Remember two years ago when the temps hit 87* in March? That was very much abnormal to the point of alarming.
Cold is a relative. Compared to what?
Take it easy, don't panic. I bet if I checked the NWS site for average mean temps in my county, Antrim, I would no doubt find temps to be colder than what we have experienced.
I remodeled my bedroom with new insulation, drywall and paneling and bought a new ceramic tower heater. It can now get as warm as I like.....around 73* for naked lounging, reading one of my favorite Sci Fi authors and listening to jazz.
Oh yeah and a glass of Petite Sirah.
Relief is on the way. It's finally warming up here and I can even see areas on the lakes where the ice is beginning to melt. Temps to reach the mid fifties this week along with some rain.
On the negative side, my basement which was finally drying out is starting to get wet again. Rats! This is my little workshop where I can build my planes (RC) and store all the supplies, parts and extra balsa, light ply and everything else. Oh well, time to ramp up the wet/dry vac and start again.
