it's been rather mild up until today here in the flatlands of southern michigan but it all ends today...up to a foot of blowing drifting snow today with steadily dropping temps until it's well below zero (f)...it's 9f right now with windchill of -8f...tuesday's high is 11f and it just keeps dropping after that...wednesday's HIGH is -7f and low wed night is -17f with windchill near -45f...i have one motorcycle in the den and another in the garage and don't own a snowmobile...where did i go wrong...zing of the frozen frontier...

You need a deer skin and snow shoes made from rustic branches .
Your a definite survivor that’s for sure.

winters are generally milder over the past 5 years but no shorter...this freeze has been a back breaker...but again, when i was young i reveled in that type of condition, the only people outside were those who could stand it, it was like a nuclear winter, the roads were empty...zing of the north...
