I'm going to ignore the questions and just point and laugh that you have to deal with those temperatures right now!

*ha ha*

I think your weather meter on the page is a bit off as well:

Current temperature: -.432°C

Now that's cold!

Heh! That's -0.432 - the script doesn't add a leading zero. :)

I like to view it without the leading decimal as well :)

Current temperature: -.698°C
