How bad is it? Crazy Cold

It was -15 when I punched out last night and that's probably the coldest I've been in my entire life.

About 1/3 of us showed up in thick coveralls and carhartt jackets and our center manager flat out didn't care.

All that and I still didn't have chain up.

It was hot where I was at today. 30 for the high wind chill around low 20s. Tonight wind chill around zero. Tomorrow high in the twenties with a wind chill in teens. Plane didnā€™t make it today so I guess theyā€™ll try again tomorrow! Cheers!

33 here now, colder with wind chill. Still a balmy 76 in the cab. How are you package boys doing?

Low 20s Is the coldest I have ever delivered in. Also, the only times I have EVER driven on snow or ice (including Black Ice) has been in a Pkg car...

January 2019 was -24 when I drove out to the route in the morning (we started 2 hours late that morning due to temperature) and they called us in around 6. The high for the day was -16. Both the USPS and Fedex Ground didn't work, but Express did. Never felt anything like that. Two days in a row it never got above -10.
