Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

.
33 and cloudy. Had a brief non-sticking snow flurry. Supposed to to get up to 43, but I don't see that happening. Too late in the day for it to get much warmer than it already is.

Yes, you can. It's been below minus 30 since Saturday here. But this coming Saturday, we will see a "warm-up" to minus 22. That will be particularly balmy.

Ten below right now with a brisk wind. Supposed to warm up tomorrow and start snowing. Expect five to six inches by Saturday night and then it gets damn cold again. Minnesota in the Winter.

Lots to choose from there. A bit pricy, but, they do look warm.
They look like they're made for you RR. :)
