Two weeks ago we had -23 in Spokane without wind... that was dang cold. I can't even imagine what it would have been like with wind.

-30 windchill just south of Milwaukee today. My Crown Vic was a little slow to start this morning.

Wisconsin winter has finally hit.

Yup, I get a kick out of those people out East Pissing and moaning about the weather The should move to the land of the Frozen Tundra

Well I can tell you from Experience that when you inhale you can feel your snot freeze when the windchill starts going below -40F

That's a good idea but not for the reason stated. It's unlikely that a fuel injected 97 dodge is flooded. But putting the gas pedal to the floor in most fuel injected vehicles tells the computer to ignore the temperature sensor and give the engine a richer mixture which can get it started in colder weather.

nope, didn't do a thing. It has now warmed up to two degrees ABOVE zero!! It is still turning over really reggedly like I was starting up a diesel in piss poor condition, but not fully kicking in.

it was -15 here today apparently, and for some reason it didn't feel that cold, but it was nippy enough i guess...
