Heads Up on Artic Blast Early Next Week

Watch out for carbon monoxide. That stuff will kill you and you will not see or smell anything. Suddenly, out of nowhere, you're dead.

Yep, here we go. For me, it is hitting tonight and through next week. It is odd to wake up and get a temperature in the morning and then see the temp go down during the day. The day is 'supposed' to warm up, not get colder.

A dear lady friend of mine lost her aunt's entire family of five or six due to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Uncle left the automobile running in the garage...upon arriving home drunk.

Found one person in the middle of shaving at the bathroom sink...water still running.

I could be entirely wrong, but I thought modern cars (last 15 years or so) don't produce much CO.

-19 in the Florida of Iowa this a.m. We were actually colder than NE IA in the little cold pocket here.

People hate it, but this kind of cold kills things you don't want, and keeps others from migrating up here, like fire ants. Keep them evil things down there.

Ohh... I was thinking hippies.

It happened in the 1990's.

Das is vahr.
We will never know and will never be told the number of homeless who die this winter. The government will never tell us the truth. Most cities have a crew which trolls around the city looking for dead bodies. They will be busy this week.

Man ... I look out my door and I know nobody is going to survive out there. Some will seek shelter. But the mentally deranged, the drug addicts, the alcoholics, they will stay outside until they die.

You are correct. The cold does kind of 'wipe the slate' when it comes to feral hippies in the wild. But we will never hear about it. It is too sensitive a subject for the common people.
