Cold is COLD!

Me: "It's gonna be a cold one today, bundle up, I will pick you up at the bus stop this afternoon."
L: "How cold is cold?"
Me: "It is really cold, right now it is 5 degrees, means everything is frozen like the freeze food"
L: "Above or below?"
Me: lol! How does she know that!?!
Me: "It is 5 degrees above zero, but the wind chill makes it -13degrees, so it is really col, dangerously cold"
L: "Oh great (sarcastic- where does she get that??!) means we don't get to go outside for recess today."
Me:"Yep, it is that cold!"

Atleast they have school today, no delays, no cancellation... we have a windchill advisory till tomorrow at noon. We are supposed to get another inch or two (it is lightly snowing right now) by night, but the temps are set to drop and the wind is set to pick up, so my guess we will have a delay tomorrow... which means Mason will not have preschool again! (ticked!) It amazes me that in the country of America we can have such drastic weather differences... how can it be 70 (LYNN!!!!) in FL, and -13 here in IA! That is insane! When we left for Disney last month we left in an ice storm with temps below 0, and landed where it was 68 at night! lol! Hard to fathom!
