Well, there was a brief "snow shower" later in the afternoon, and the wind blew around some of the dry fluffy stuff that had fallen before, but basically it didn't snow. The sun even came out. But it was still cold.
That didn't stop the guys from coming out and installing my new doors and windows. However, I think they all were born in a barn, because they didn't seem to know to close the doors! The furnace was constantly running, so I turned it off at one point but it was getting nasty cold in here (I was wearing my parka indoors). I did turn it back up to 62°F for the evening. It kept cycling on all night even at that low setting.

Wow imagine getting new doors and windows on a cold day.
These people who were born in a barn need to learn how to close doors.
I had one house that was so cold ice grew on the inside of the windows

They most likely were single pane windows. These new ones I got are tripple pane.

@Ineeddentures That was one reason I wanted them replaced. Your double glazed windows probably lost their seals.

They were double glazed but I think not that good quality.
Triple glazing is where it's at
Bet it keeps noise out also

I'm surprised that they would do windows and doors in this weather.

We haven't had any new snow for two days now... woohoo. The sun's been out and the old snow has slowly been melting but the roads still aren't clear.

Yes, but they never complained about it.

Well, it'll definitely be higher but I'm sure I can pay it with some of the millions I make here.

It's doing what it's supposed to do. At least you have what you need and the snow didn't stop progress.

We are getting into the 60s on Friday and then zooming back down. This weather is giving me what I call fuzzy head,
