This week we had a record broken, the previous high temperature for January 7th was established in 1878 at 28 degrees, the lowest high temperature temperature in recorded history where I live for that date, which held for 136 years. Last Tuesday the high temp was 21 degrees, breaking the previous record by 7 degrees, Wind chills were in negative numbers.

On the trip to the doctors to take the wife for a minor surgical procedure my mileage barely broke 41 indicated with ambient temps at 16 degrees. Typically I can hit 50 or more on the same trip of around 38 miles when the temps are above 65 degrees.

The temp on the Fiesta's instrument cluster was 45 degrees when I pulled out of the garage but quickly dropped to 15 degrees within the first two miles travelled.
