NWS Says It's Gonna Be Cold--DUH!

National Weather Service is issuing a Hazardous Weather watch for our area. As if you didn't already know it's so cold your car likely won't start, the dog might freeze to death and my pipes will be frozen.
Anyway, if you're curious about the effect these dangerously low temperatures can have on your health, check out this web site from Environment Canada.
If there is one thing Canadians know, it's cold.
Oh, and hockey, too I suppose.

Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around -9. Wind chill values as low as -25. South wind between 5 and 10 mph.
