Minus 8 degrees at 8:40 p.m. Friday here in south-central Minnesota, with low of minus 18 forecast by the National Weather Service, and below zero every night for a week or longer. And we were having such a mild winter! I don't have livestock to worry about, but I'm running multiple heat lamps and heat mats in garage and shed for outside cats (including strays), and heated water bowls for cats and one at the bird feeders. I put out enough mixed sunflower, corn and other grain to have some left over for multiple deer that arrive to clean up what the birds and squirrels miss. Although the snow isn't really too deep, I saw half a dozen or so deer feeding at a grass pile I had stacked to use for mulch in next spring's gardens. They're welcome to it.
(P.S. I appreciate everyone who defines "here" either in their messages or in their user names with weather stories and such. "Here" often has little value without a location. Many readers don't know where other posters live, and 18 below zero "here" in southern MN is not surprising, but if "here" is southern Texas, shocking!)

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
