JUST Cold Here & Getting Colder...Read THIS!!

Nothing like the "Hi-Line" in Montana and North Dakota is going to experience tonight.

A definite "Three Dog Night." Wind howling...Yep, get out and drive...you know you can make it...OOPS...The old bus came to a stop..probably frozen fuel line...You can see a light up there about a mile or so...So you get out and walk, and you know they will help you.

Of course, it would have been great if you brought along something other than a jean jacket but of course you know there is heat up there...after walking until you are damn near froze solid you realize it is maybe another mile.

OOPs, this could be getting serious. COLD, yep, 10 below zero and winds up to 40 MPH...Hey, why is your face and nose turning gray?? Your whole body starts to feel like you can't go on. Looks like still another mile...Now you are so cold you just want to lay down, but you know better. Sad thing is that it's about all over...More steps and then the you trip and fall down and scrape up your face on the pavement. Ok, you can get up once more, you are a survivor. Well, maybe for not much longer. Your only hope now is some other idiot driving in this weather that might find you. Then, because of the bad shape you are in they probably won't pick you up anyway...

Funny thing you really don't care...Hypothermia has set in..

So, now 3 vehicles have went by and the temperature is down to 15 below..Saddly none stopped .The wind the same...You are history unless something happens immediately. At this point your body will start rushing blood to the surface. It won't work as your body core temperature has started to drop and severe hypothermia has started to set in.

Now, even if God intervenes you cannot be put into warm temperatures even if that is your dying desire...No such luck...You real around on the highway...The last big flush your body can make to warm the skin comes and you feel like you want to scratch your self to death...Then, you start ripping of your clothes...It's so hot...You have to..Then, well, the end is near...

Many don't know that most severe freezing victims are found naked or scantily clad...

A BUTT UGLY way to die...Stay home...I came close and lived...
