That’s ridiculous. Wow. I’m in NJ, and we are expecting -1 by tomorrow morning. I’ve never felt anything colder than 2-3 degrees.

My wife was in Punta Cana a couple days ago and had to deal with more than one hundred degrees of change. The fireplace has been running non-stop for 30 hours. It will be -22F again tonight, but then in a few days, sixty degree higher.

I wouldn't say it liked the cold, but it got me there. It was the first time I didn't find the heated steering wheel too hot.
