Yes Clint we are having a winter we haven't seen in 34 years here in Southern IL.
I can remember Feb 12 1996 we had a cold snap here was -12F when I
Left Sunday morning in ole blue my 84 Chev
K30 with Cummins power for GOMACO school
in IDA-Grove IA.
Temp dropped all day as I drove north.
When I got there it was -28.
Spent the week there and Temp never got higher than -22.
Everybody's trucks ran 24/7 and plugged in at the Motel.
Each parking spot had a 110V receptacle.
Coldest I ever been.
Was a real education for me.
