Facing Wind Chill

bartster's winter stargazing abruptly halted by nostrils freezing shut
A clear night in Manitoba is simply awe inspiring. The stars in these northern latitudes shine so bright and seem so close. One can look heavenward and marvel at the expanse of the universe ud-tid dor dostruls preeze shudd add ips toe told oub-tide you gobba geb idda houb (read this phonetically--out loud-- and you'll get the gist).

Tonight it's 27 below, but the winds are down, so the windchill is only about 30 below F. Good news, by the weekend, it's supposed to warm up enough to snow.

Your bro commented on facebook about the exact same issue. Too funny...and yes, the stars are gorgeous. I will get to see them soon!
