I couldn't find the original post and thread.
Once in a while we get "EXTREME COLD WARNING IN EFFECT" from Environment Canada. The current one started a couple of days ago. Here's today's forecast in degrees F.
Current temperature at 10:30 a.m. is -22 with a wind chill of -31. And there's hardly any wind!
Wind chill this morning is -45. Can hardly wait for the balmy -31 this afternoon!
This is why almost all vehicles here are equipped with block heaters. They are attached to the engine block and a grounded plug comes out through the front grill. I have a switch on my breaker panel that turns it on and off. It will have been on 2 hours by the time I head out today.

Stay warm, folks!
