    I always worry about the animals when we get these crazy cold times. How many die. It’s sad to think about.

      For native animals? Probably not that many, as they are adapted to the fact that it gets very cold.

      Stray cats and dogs? Probably quite a few.

        I don’t know if the polar vortex would go that far south so commonly in the past though. Climate change has made it wobble like crazy I’m recent years. It’s why we end up with warmer days in Finland now with no snow when it moves that way.

        At these temperatures, it’s best to keep your ass and your pet’s asses inside and pray the furnace don’t quit.
