Marin Waddell said… - Just saw your friend request from Dec 2nd. Sorry I didn't respond sooner! I'm actually up in Saskatchewan, Canada so we frequently get the same weather systems as northern Montana and North Dakota. I hope they're not getting the same one right now though. Forecasted temperature is -31F with windchills of -62F. Nasty.
