At 3 o'clock it was 74* here in Fort Worth. Now at 6:20 it's 32* and headed for ~20* tonight.

Expected wind chill overnight at 4*. 

Yeah, I now 20* ain't that cold compared to where a bunch of y'all are...but a 42 degree temperature drop in such a short time is pretty amazing. 

YMMV.

I had a strange thing happen today.
I was driving south on I-65 approaching Seymour, Indiana when all of a sudden, like in 5 or 10 seconds, all of the glass, inside and out, frosted over with haze and I couldn't see a thing. I had to quickly wipe the inside of the windshield and turn on the wipers to keep from hitting something. I've never had that happen before.
It seems that I drove into an abrupt temperature change, from cold to warm and moist.
It sure got my attention in a hurry.

-22 tonight with a wind chill of -42.  That is pretty cold even for us here in the Twin Cities.  They actually changed how they calculate wind chill factor about a decade ago. We would be -50 or more with the old system.  The old system was more realistic to me. That cold wind just rips through you.

Some years ago I lived in the Bitterroot. Saw a cold snap one year for 10 days through Christmas where it was -50.

So cold the fireplace froze up...but that's another story. 

A buddy busted his leg skiing and I ended up feeding his beeves. That was amazingly chilly, standing on a trailer forking hay off of round bales, running to get in the tractor to turn it all around and head back the other direction, and climbing back onto the trailers to keep feeding. I was a shit-cicle by the time it was done. 

I feels your pain.

The US Weather Service in Austin - SA posted this a few hours ago.

3 PM Apparent Temperature across the nation (courtesy www.mesonet.org). This is the "feels like" temperatures taking into account wind chill and heat index. There is currently a Wind Chill of -12 in Dalhart, TX and a Heat Index of 95 in McAllen, TX. A 107 degree spread in apparent temperature across Texas!

107 degree spread is pretty big. The 75F side of things sure felt best.

Temp here went from 64 to 46 in about half an hour. Had a couple windows open and it was easy to tell when the front went through. Nice warm air was coming in the living room and going out the kitchen, stopped for a few seconds then started coming from the kitchen and it was like standing in front of an air conditioner.

Earlier today we had 3 severe t-storm warnings, a couple tornado warnings close by, tornado watch that just ended, along with a couple of other minor weather advisories. And now we're under a winter weather advisory until tomorrow and a flood advisory for a couple more hours.
