Porsche Crest 7 degrees!

We got hit this weekend by a cold air mass and high winds, and when I started the Porsche this morning, my thermometer outside read 7 degrees!

It took a couple of starts to get it to run smooth, but then I used my hand throttle to let it warm up for about 10 minutes, and away I went. It ran fine and the temp stayed very low on the whole drive, less than 180 degrees! It did not pump out very much heat either, but I was fine with a leather jacket.

Our weatherman ran a comparison this morning showing how we were colder than almost anywhere in the states! One small town just north of here read minus 3 degrees, and it was only minus 1 degree in Fairbanks Alaska, with a breeze on top of that too here. Brrrrrrrrrr brrrr-

Colder than Germany too huh Smitty?!?!?

It's much nicer right now, about 40!
