How cold was it in Chicago? Let's put it this way: it was so cold that when firefighters fought the fire in a blazing abandoned warehouse, the Water froze while the building was still on fire!

I live just north of Milwaukee and they were covering it on the news. The building had restarted on fire so they were there again this morning trying to extinguish the flames. Amazing how a fire can keep going with that much ice surrounding it. :(

Yah, sadly this building has reignited as mentioned above. Grateful I have a fenced yard so I don't have to try to walk my dogs in this weather! They do their business and come right back in, even my Shiba that loves the cold normally.

Living in the burbs of Chicago I can say yep it's cold, but not that darn bad. Or maybe I'm just used to it? :-). I think Minnesota has it worse at 35 below zero. Today we are around 20 degrees and back up to 50 next week. But needless to say I won't be trying to stick my tongue on any light poles!

I don't like the cold weather at all!!! I was born and raised in northern NC southern VA area, but could very easily be talked into moving to Bermuda!!

I live in the Chicago Suburbs too and have been freezing. I wish the old saying "Freezing my butt off" were true cause I could use to loose some cushioning there lol!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
