It was 10 degrees ("feels like -3") this morning. I bundled up my son like crazy for the walk to school, but he was complaining that his face was cold.
Then I went to work in a cafe, but the heater wasn't strong enough and I could see my breath while I tried to type with frozen fingers. Had to switch cafes, that was a new one.
Is this a nationwide cold front? And by nationwide, I mean everywhere except for Texas and California.

@mrsrugbee: 
It was 1* when I woke up with a real feel of -10. That is pretty cold for the bluegrass region. I'm surprised school started on time today.

@mrbee: that's how warm (errr, cold!) it is in the DC area and schools were delayed this morning due to "extreme cold!"

Ugh! It's 11 degrees (feels like -1) here in PA. For once I wish I was back in Seattle where it is 39 degrees, but feels like 35.

It's colder than normal in Texas. I won't complain about the temp though since it's not in the negatives.

We're finally up to a "real feel" of 5 and the little guy is itching to go out so we're going to run to the grocery store.

Currently 12 (real feel -2). Very fortunate for a working heating system to keep us warm.

It's cold in Texas too! At least for us. My DH had to walk the dog when it was 24 degrees. We just aren't made for cold weather here. He had like 4 layers on, lol.

It's a balmy 37 this morning in Portland, OR. It's supposed to go up to the 50s later though. Our cold front came in November with temps in the 20s. Hope it warms up there soon.

It's so cold here in Texas too! Right now it's 19 degrees and the wind chills make it seem awfully cold. Stay warm everyone!

It's a nice 21 here! Although the feels like is 7 or so. It seems like usually by the time we are on the warm up of a cold front it hits the east coast!

Zero degrees right now in the Chicago burbs. Chicago public schools are closed for the 2nd day in a row. Yay, another snow day! We have been hibernating inside since Tuesday night.

We're actually having a warm front here in AZ. I've used my a/c in my car going home every day so far this week

Freeeeezing. My kids are going nuts but there is no way we are going out for now. Stuck waiting for the super to come help with a frozen pipe.

It's been very cold in Ontario. -35 yesterday and -25 Celsius today. Had to walk outside while wearing DD and she seemed fine but my face was freezing.

It was -5 when I left for work this morning at 815. We had a late start today due to the cold---we were closed yesterday because of it (-35 windchill!)

@macintosh: I can't believe CPS is closed again. They're usually the last to close! We have late start today.

Yesterday schools across our state were closed because the temp was -15, with a windchill of -40. COLD. It's above zero right now, so schools are back in session, but it's only about 5 degrees and the win is pretty cold. It's snowing too, and the roads are awful.
You know it's cold when you feel your nose hairs freezing!!!
As a Minnesota-native, I miss living in New York so much! At least the year I lived there, it never really dropped below 20 degrees, and that was only 1-2 days out of the whole year! I remember never using my real winter coat haha.

@jedeve: yeah I'm so pleased that it was in the 20's when I went to work this am. I was like "wow, in November 20 seemed bitter. Now it feels like a warm front!"

@mrsrugbee: We're close to that today -30c!
Yikes, have to keep the face covered with scarves, hats, mitts, etc. We walk to daycare/work everyday throughout the year. So stroller gets a weather protector and toddler gets snuggle bag to keep warm on commute.

This weather is making me consider continuing to live in an apartment! Heated underground parking, my heat set at 80 (paid by solar), radiant floor heating... I really appreciate it right now!
We had to take LO to a doctor's appointment this morning and I was like "how do people survive here?!" - I saw people without parkas or hats!
