Yes yes and yes. Minus 40 f + c are the same. When I was a kid just GUESS Who took the grain shovel and dug the pathway to the barn alllll the way from the back door of the house????? The greatest thing the week before your dad bought you a brand new pair of black Tingley boots at the agway for around $4.oo Dont forget a coating of canning sealing wax on that shovel. After you clean the cow poo off of it. When you got into the barn the milking was about a third done and the humidity had to be in the high 80% range. Remember the beautiful ice and frost patterns on the windows where the tiny air leaks were. Can remember some times they were almost an inch think. Next was hopeing the Clay and later Badger silage unloaders wasn't frozen solid and the frozen stuff on the walls would at least let the machine turn. Then a couple of days later the sun would thaw the southern facing side of the silo and all of that crap falls right on top of the machine. Go up and dig it out. After the girls are fed and grained. GLF and then later Agway used to call it Sweet Sixteen mix. Had that really disgusting thick molasses in it. The stuff even had strands of sugar cane in it. Smelled great though. A little latter in the day you were praying the s,*** elevator wasn't frozen and The patz barn cleaner was free too. How many buckets of hot water from the milkhouse and a crow bar do you need to break it loose? You ever try to back a spreader up on a sheet of ice? Next thing is try to get out. The sunlight is so blinding bright even sunglasses are hardly enough. One really bad thing is you get the new idea spreader full and the tractor will not start. The damn heffers have pulled all of the ignition wires off the 460. But the whole side of the tractor is licked clean. By the way...electric fences don't work too good when they are burned in snow drifts. Then you hear on the barn radio..... There is going to be another 10 to 12 inches tonight.
