I had 11 below. When the LCD in my UltraGauge warmed up enough to display legibly, my coolant temp was 7.6 below. I was 20 miles down the road before I was getting real heat.
Edit- The temp was already rising. It was 14 below when I got up, but only 11 below when I got in the car.

Its been between -10F and -3F every day leaving for work this week. I think it hit a high of 3F during the day this week. It is cold. As if that weren't enough, its been really windy too.

Not nearly that. 12*F when I left work. My 4 year old $25 Walmart battery slowly cranked over my nearly 20 yr old Dodge neon. Corrosion, crap terminals and all. Should start easier tomorrow when it's 20*. I've thought about bringing the battery inside during my shift. It has to be less than 60* in my bedroom now. A fireplace insert heats the house well, but my windows are older than I am. I'm just glad I don't own a century home. :rofl:

Warm spell here: 39 now, overnight low was 25. (Which p*sses me off, as what little snow there is in the mountains is turning to slush.) Last week was pretty good, though: down in single digits overnight, and barely above freezing in the daytime.
