That's Ch-ch-chilly!
It's 54 below zero today in Embarrass, Minnesota.
Quote: The cold at Embarrass didn't stop the regular customers from getting their morning coffee at Four Corners, a cafe and gas station. "Everybody left their cars running," waitress Trish Roggenbuck said. "It was pretty much breathtaking when you walked outside."
See, I would have stayed home. Because, if any of these folk's boss knew they were there today, they've totally blown any sort of pretense of calling in with car troubles any other day. Their boss will just say, "Your car worked when it was 54 below, you get your sorry butt in here!" and that's the end of that!
