Several "Zero Degree" nights while working on the surface @ Union Carbide mine, Pine Creek (Bishop area) California, 1970...elevation about 7500 ft. Came off graveyard shift fresh from the shower. Climbing on to the shuttle bus to town, complained that I got some "resin or something" in my hair. Got a good 'laughing-at', because the 'resin' was ICE...my freshly-showered hair had frozen in place...a 'first' for me..

This was the same year it dropped below 0° in parts of northern Florida.
Many Floridians think it is the end of the world when it drops to 60 degrees in the daytime, so I can imagine how they would react at 0 degrees, LOL.

Default Killdeer, ND 1985

In 1985 in Killdeer, ND it was -68 degrees F with a wind chill of -103 degrees F. I will never ever forget it. They had a news guy on TV from Fargo that threw a cup of water into the air and it came down as ice.

15 years ago this month, I went to a wedding in Greensboro, NC. I remember on the way we passed a building( probably a bank) whose sign read a temperature of -5. My parents made sure to bundle me up before we left to go to the church that day.

I am about to head to PA over the weekend for a few days so I assume I will feel some almost 0 degree weather. Other then that the coldest has just been here in FL around 35 I guess.
