It is warmer here, it was hitting -6 a couple days ago 
but has warmed up to 11 above this morning. It's 
typically 5-6* colder at the top of the hill and up to 
10-15* colder at the bottom. I picked a spot on the 
hillside to build so the cold air would flow away from 
the house. It's a survival trick to put your camp about 
75' above the flats on a hillside if possible.

A few miles up the highway it's been hanging in 
the -20f range, -10f range closer to town and generally 
at least a few degrees colder almost everywhere else.

I'd known about camping on a hillside for years but 
till I used the trick to build the house and tracked 
the temps I didn't know just how effective it really 
is. It's typically 4-5f colder just 100' away on the 
flat spot where my shop is. I pity the fools who build 
in the hollow. . . Brrrrr.

Keep warm Roger.

It is 12F below 0 here in southern Minnesota would that 
qualify.
Hopefully this will not last over a week and then warm 
up
Did not go to the shop today stayed in the basement and 
cleaned and reloaded
shotgun shells till it was time to go to my day job at
