Sudden cold snap in NH. -40 degrees! (temperature display)

My dash shows an outside temp of -40 degrees. What's failed?

The sudden change of temp from Texas to NH move has surely broken the thermometer.

The temp sensor is in the bottom of the driver side mirror. That is a place to start looking. Is there ice collecting in that spot?

lmfao. no, its not reading incorrectly. just a normal NH temp swing. if you dont like the weather wait 5 minutes... it'll change. lol. seriously though, you guys have been in a heat wave back home. must make 130 and no humidity look nice.

At least you won't have to worry about the metric conversion. They're the same at -40...
