I would take those temps in a minute! The daytime high will barely make it into the low teens tomorrow where I am. I'm hosting an annual party with some of my friends on Saturday and we'll be outside smoking cigars and drinking some whiskey in the upper teens before we head inside to watch the football games! By the way you have some nice selections there. I have had the Wellers and enjoyed it a lot!

The one good thing about temperatures like what we're currently experiencing is that they generally arrive with loads of sunshine and blue skies!

pkadare you mean your not taking the polar bear plunge while cooking off a brisket? Just to be clear, I meant air tempo as opposed to temp with the wind chill factored in!
