    I’m in southern Ohio and I’m sharing in your 19F pain right now. My husband was wondering why I spent last week weatherstripping our windows and putting up some of that Frost King film on the others. We’re both glad I saw the forecast in advance.

    We usually just get one or two cold snaps in January or February. This weather is unusual within the last 10-15 years.

      Oh yeah any climate change denier over the age of 20 makes me insane. Like, you don’t remember how things were in your childhood versus now? We used to get so much snow. Now we get three inches roughly three times a year.

      Good looking out on the prep, I hope it saves you a lot of money. I have so many layers on right now.

        Love the lack of insect swarms year-round. Hate the lack of fireflies in summer.

        What a bizarre thing to lose.

          Where I’m at the mosquitos are fucking thriving. I spend a lot of my free time sitting on my front porch. They eat me up, and I have a severe reaction to them. Most of the cool insects are gone.
