Consecutive bicycle work commute number 1809:

We got an unpredicted inch of snow yesterday afternoon. That puts our total snow since Monday at 12". It's supposed to start snowing again later today, with estimates for this storm being as high as 10". I'm not Norwegian, but "Uff Da!"

This morning the temp was right at zero. Thankfully that is Fahrenheit and not Kelvin. High today is supposed to top out around 8ºF, then temps are going to plummet below zero and not rise back into the positives until late next week. South Dakota summers are gorgeous, but our winter is the price you pay to get those beautiful days.

Had an 8 mph headwind as I rode in to work, which put the wind chill at -14ºF. I rode slow, due to a combination of the wind, the fat bike, the inch of unplowed snow and my excessive weight.
