Is it supposed to warm up by the weekend?

Be as pedantic as you want, the term "F***ing freezing" is the scientific term for it. I just resist the urge to punch people that think they're being funny by saying "cold enough for you?"

Those temps are in Fahrenheit. So by Wednesday, that's -33 in old money.

We only got about 6. Other parts of the state were hit worse. It's temps over the next few days I am not looking forward to.
