At 10:00 AM Sioux Falls was at 8 below with a wind chill of 29 below.
Look at this. It's downright scary!

The wind was already gusting to 32 MPH when I got up. I could hear the dumpster covers "banging in the breeze". This is only the beginning of a very miserable cold spell.

The National Weather Service says the temperature will fall to about 5 below by 5:00 PM and the wind chill will drop down to around 22 below. Tomorrow will be worse.
Sioux Falls is already at 1 below with a wind chill of 24 below at 2:00 A.M. and that's all heading our way.
I don't think I'll venture out, today, for anything less than a million dollars......well, maybe $500,000. I'd have to think about it.
FROM
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE
Wind chills will fall to -20 to -25 by later this afternoon. Then be in the -20 to -30 range through tonight and much of Monday morning.
FROST BITE AND HYPOTHERMIA CAN OCCUR WITHIN 30 MINUTES IF PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN..

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways but narrower viewpoints.
We spend more but have less, we buy more but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences but less time.
We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge but less judgment, more experts yet more problems, more medicine but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years.
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.
We've done larger things but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom but not our prejudice. We write more but learn less. We plan more but accomplish less. We've learned to rush but not to wait.
We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer to quiet to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight or to just hit delete.
Remember to spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember to say 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
And always remember, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by those moments that take our breath away.
