Brrrrrrrr

It was -11 for most of today and that was without the wind chill. Thankfully it wasn't a really windy day but damn it was cold. I came across an article that made it feel a little warmer here. "The big deal today into Thursday morning will be wind chill.
If you know what 58 below feels like, then the wind chill in the Devils Lake Basin by late tonight or in the dark, early hours of Thursday morning will feel too familiar.
Actual temperatures will reach 35 below, maybe 40 below in isolated pockets up north near the Canadian border, said Brad Hopkins, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Grand Forks.

Across much of northeastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota, wind chills will get down to 52 to 58 below late tonight and early Thursday, according to the National Weather Service office in Grand Forks, which issued a wind chill warning for the region from midnight Tuesday to noon today. Most of today, it will feel like 40 to 46 below across the region."

At least it's not going to be 52-58 below here.
