-32C and -45 windchill sounds like just another winter day in Flagstaff, AZ. I've experienced -40 there more than once.

This might be a good time to read: Not By Fire, But By Ice by Robert Felix.

If you like strange puzzles, try: Missing 411. I'm sorry but I can't remember the author's name.

I kid, I kid.

It's going to be an unsettled winter. Usually the El Nino / La Nina effect gives us some idea of what to expect as an overall trend. This year there appears to be neither -- the forecasters have nicknamed it "La Nada."
