    I’m not skipping work, but when I put in the personal time off request and told my boss why it was such short notice he said to get out there and do the work, so that’s what’s happening.

    I’ve been pretty nervous looking at the weather and how that may affect turnout. The forecast has a low of -23, which rivals some of the worst cold snaps I’ve seen up here factoring in windchill. But it turns out that’s just in the morning. By the time the march happens it’ll be closer to -10. That’s just adding sweatpants between my leggings and jeans and some thinner gloves under my inner glove layer.

    I hope this makes a difference.

      This is nothing, few years back we had -40° days with wind chill bringing it down to -70. Everything closed, yet everyone i knew still went out ice fishing
