Just out of college in Aberdeen, SD in the early 80's we didn't get above zero for 6 days in a row or above 32 for 6 weeks! I know that doesn't sound cold, but when you think about it there was no chance of any thaw or warmth for 6 weeks....I took the battery out of the car every night and put it in the basement to keep some cca in it! The wind chill was close to -70 every day! I had my grandma's '62 Chevy with '3 on the tree' when it got that cold all I had was 2nd and 3rd......too stiff to get it in 1st or reverse. Most people left their cars running when in the store, bar, etc.
