6 below this morning. Fortunately, there's no wind.

-39
I was able to warm the hot line from basement to sink so it is now working but line to second floor toilet is no flow.
I wish bad things on people who run waterlines on outside walls, or near outside walls or even within sight of an outside wall.
Have the fireplace heating the living area. It was down to 59 in house this morning.
Wife really wanted to go to gym this morning so I drove and brought the car back.
Gym had bunches of people at it, I wasn’t expecting that.

I left the faucet running a liitle on the utility sink in the laundry room. Probably shut it off in a couple days.
Instructed my SIL to do the same in our rental house.
Nice and warm in the pickup right now!

10degrees with -10 windchill in SW OK. right now. Nice and toasty where I'm sitting though. Don't know how in the Hell I survived working outside in this country all those years, and hate to think I'd have to do it now. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/uYpJI1X.jpg)

-32 for the low in the big city. "Official" won't be that low though as it's recorded at the airport, which is 300 or so feet higher than the burgh. Up to -24 already. -40 down on the river. Luckily it's only going to be a few days. Wouldn't want to be an unsuspecting EV driver testing the cold temperature range out on the highways and byways in this.

Nice and warm in the pickup right now! I grew up in a 10x60 tin can. Once temps hit freezing or below sinks were left dripping and cabinet doors below sinks were left on. Normally heat tape around the supply line between the ground and bottom of the tin can. I don't miss that one bit.

Mid to upper twenties today, gonna drop to teens next week.
Shocker, just lost power. Glad I wired the house for full power even if it is a 12k portable generator. I got heat.

-32 this morning, power went out as usual when it gets cold. Grabbed the generator, oil was like molasses and no way it would pull start. Put the generator inside to thaw, power came back on a hour and a half later. The house went from 68 to 61 in an hour and a half, not too bad when it’s-32 outside.
I use my small generator to run my pellet stoves, doesn’t take much power. Plus I can run the microwave off of it.
The dog still wants to go outside and play ball.
