    Yes, I feel for those of you who have to work or be near outside today. Finally, there's a benefit to the cubicle farm!

    On a related note, I'll report the first cold-weather casualty. Headlight bulb chose this morning to burn out. Don't know if it's cold related, doubt it, but it's not getting fixed until the weekend at least now.

      Car Warmed Up To 90 In About 20 Min, As Soon As I Started Driving, Temp Went Down Really Fast.

          My car will never get close to 90 in this weather, it is damn cold. After being in heated underground parking all night and driving for 15+ minutes I was barely at 40. Will be starting it up at lunch for sure today

                I had to park outside last night and my car is frozen solid. Had to walk to work :( My personal thermostat didn't even get above 0!

                  After being outside for 4.5 hours I gave my car a start and just got it going, will be going through a bit of diesel this week!

                    Had my thermostat replaced by george a month ago. My car warmed up to 90 today in less than 10 minutes

                      Had the coolant heater running for 3.5 hours, took 4 tries to get my car to fire, but it cranked hard all along. When I got to work, got out to open the door to pull it inside, got back in and the drivers door light stayed on though... This may not end well if the Vortex is right.

                          Don't worry more then likely a frozen micro switch. Not super hard to replace if you have to anyways.

                          Wifes car wouldn't start this morning, mine started but it was in the garage (unheated and uninsulated though).
