Coldest morning of the year.

Plant is started, truck and Debbie's feed tractor plugged in. Have a hay truck to unload at MM this morning so will leave here about 7:30 to plug my tractor into the welder and read for an hour before it will go. Tomorrow is supposed to be the cold day. Warming up on Monday.

I am way to busy to take time to have fruits and vegetables in my recording studio making music. :D That only happens in Ontario. :shock: :wink:
 
I see over by Great Falls had 42 Below this morning- and by Lewistown had -33... Whole state in minus teens or colder...
I didn't feel so bad about it being -16 here, when I look on the Mesonet map and see all those towns in the Chinook zone or Montana Banana Belt sitting at the same or colder temps...
Usually its just us up here in the NE corner of the state freezing our butts off...
 
-29 with a windchill this am. Feeding heavy.....stock waterer has frozen up so hauling a hose out to stock tank( you always have to have a Plan B) Looking for a Chinook but forecast is for more of the same.
 
Just got home from playing basketball in Bismarck temp on the vehicle showed -14. This mourning was cold enough I had to open the water tanks twice before the cows got there to keep them open. It said on the radio that in the central part of the state we have had something like 43 days of negative temps and the NE part of the state had around 65.

Going to interrupt here
When the Russians were buying as many cattle from North America
Someone that had been dealing with them quoted the Russians saying ( just wait when our weather pattern changes to your side of the world for seven years you North Americans will be buying beef from us cause out country went on food shortage where we consumed most of our horse food population)
I am starting to belive that winter weather pattern change of that quote though.

With the propane shortage I heard many people that do not own livestock are moving to the southern warmer states for the winter so they do not freeze
To death. Heard on the late news one women froze to death when they found her the temp was zero as well as her propane tank
Earlier news reported Obama used one of his famous executive orders to export propane cause USA had plenty

BITTER COLD-MONTANA

Parts of Montana hit record cold temperatures

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — Bitterly cold air covered the state early Thursday, breaking records with temperatures falling to as low as 50 below at Elk Park north of Butte. Wind chills as cold as minus 56 were reported in Livingston.

Montana State University Billings canceled classes for Thursday over issues with heating the campus. The university is on an interruptible natural gas contract with a propane backup. Facilities services director Jason McGimpsy tells The Billings Gazette the backup system was "kicking out on us throughout the day" Wednesday. If the backup system went out, the entire campus would be without heat.

The National Weather Service says record cold temperatures were reported in Bozeman, Dillon, Fort Benton, Great Falls, Lewistown and West Yellowstone. It fell to 34 below in Great Falls, shattering the old mark of 28 below set 121 years ago in 1893.
