Minus Fahrenheit

It's cold.

There are no degrees to be had outdoors. In fact, there are minus degrees outside, so you start at a degree deficit just to get to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. It was -6 degrees F when I woke up this morning.

What woke me up was my wife telling me the pipes froze in our upstairs bathroom. We have lived in this house (built in 1920) for three winters and in two of those our hot water feed to the second floor has frozen. Not much to do but apply heat and wait. Hopefully no burst pipes.

It's really cold.
