here in NE Ohio it is a balmy 24, but there's an arctic cold front supposed to be coming in tomorrow and the temps could get in the single digits by Sunday morning

Under the cats, mostly.
actually not very today.... it's 3:45am - but earlier today I think it reached a good mild 6-7C.
Was nice not to freeze at work todayfor once!

Where my cats are
It's 38 here right now. It was in the upper 40's today and it felt great! We're supposed to get colder weather in tomorrow night and have a cold Sunday.

16 currently, which is quite toasty compared to the single digits we've had all week.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
# Tonight: Windy with partly cloudy skies. Flurries or snow showers possible early. Wind chills approaching -20F. Low -4F. Winds NW at 20 to 30 mph.
# Tomorrow: Sunshine and clouds mixed. Very cold. Wind chills may approach -20F. High 3F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.
# Tomorrow night: Bitterly cold. Partly cloudy skies. Low near -10F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph.
# Sunday: Mostly cloudy skies. Cold. High 13F. Winds light and variable.
# Monday: Chance of a few snow showers. Highs in the low 20s and lows in the low teens.
# Tuesday: Morning clouds followed by afternoon sun. Highs in the mid teens and lows in the low single digits.

Does this give you a hint of how cold it is here? If not how about this:
...WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 12 PM CST SUNDAY...

A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 12 PM CST SUNDAY.

NORTHWEST WINDS OF 10 TO 20 MPH COMBINED WITH TEMPERATURES RANGING
FROM ZERO DOWN TO AS LOW AS NEAR 20 BELOW ZERO...WILL CREATE WIND
CHILLS OF 20 TO 30 BELOW ZERO. THESE DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH MID DAY SUNDAY BEFORE WINDS DIMINISH.

THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE. FIRST...DEPENDING ON HOW
COLD IT GETS TONIGHT...THERE IS A VERY REAL POSSIBILITY THAT WIND
CHILLS MAY EXCEED 30 BELOW ZERO NORTH AND WEST OF A LINE FROM
DUBUQUE TO IOWA CITY AROUND SUNRISE SATURDAY MORNING. IF THIS
WOULD OCCUR...A WIND CHILL WARNING MAY BE NEEDED FOR THAT AREA.
SECOND...WIND CHILLS ON SATURDAY ARE EXPECTED TO BRIEFLY CLIMB
ABOVE ADVISORY CRITERIA FOR A FEW HOURS ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE
INTERSTATE 80 CORRIDOR. HOWEVER...WIND CHILLS ARE EXPECTED TO
REACH ADVISORY CRITERIA AGAIN WHEN THE SUN SETS ON SATURDAY.

A WIND CHILL ADVISORY MEANS THAT VERY COLD AIR AND STRONG WINDS
WILL COMBINE TO GENERATE LOW WIND CHILLS...RESULTING IN FROST
BITE AND HYPOTHERMIA IF PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN. IF YOU MUST
VENTURE OUTDOORS...DRESS IN LAYERS COVERING EXPOSED SKIN.
FROSTBITE WILL OCCUR IN A FEW AS 20 MINUTES IN THESE CONDITIONS.
