Know what you mean. Down is South Louisiana we only got down to 22 but with the wind the chill factor was in the teens. I'm sure you would have liked that better than what you have but with our humidity it is really cold. In the 60's I was stationed in Alaska in the negative numbers but have never been as cold as 18 degrees and sleet in Louisiana. It bites to the bone. Gotta admit -20 is cold no matter how you look at it.
