Been tough dealing with this artic blast over the last few days, the Englander NC-30 has been having a tough time burning through the night. I hear parts of North Dakota it's even colder. The forecast is more of the same until next week
crap, that's too cold for me...and I went running in shorts the other day at -5 (no Wind chill factor)BeGreen said:That was without wind chill:
"Record low temperature set at International Falls MN...
a record low temperature of -37 degrees was set at International
Falls MN today. This breaks the old record of -35 set in 1911."
Better there than here. Our infrastructure is not set up for temps below zero.

yes, yes, I am. But in all fairness I didn't say i liked doing it. It was more of a "look what i can do" kinda thing. one and a half miles (I chickened out of a 2 mile run) later i was seriously wondering if I had frost bite on my legs from knee up to short line. couldn't feel my legs at the end of the run. came in and ran to the wood stove and got as close as i could for a minute or so. When you are looking at your legs just mm away from a stove top that's reading 500 and you can't feel it you get a little worried. I seriously could have touched the stove with my cold leg and wouldn't have felt it. I'd have regretted it later, I'm sure, but I wouldn't have felt it at the time. warmed up slowly under a blanket redness went away, and started wondering if I cold have made it further.... Let it never be said that I don't sometimes push the boundaries....BrowningBAR said:Danno77 said:crap, that's too cold for me...and I went running in shorts the other day at -5 (no Wind chill factor)
You're insane.
