So, Accuweather says the temp is 22, so it's probably around 12 degrees in my immediate area.
I haven't gone outside yet to check things out. Inside, the insulation has made a difference. When it gets this cold, historically parts of the house would be quite cool even with the furnace running. Not the case now. It is a bit cool but the night setting is low and the furnace is warming the house to daytime setting.
Other things I've done in the past are working. Nearly every time the temperature dropped this low before, I was without water. It's running fine now.
Someone made a comment last night I was happy for. I had forgotten to drain the well pump tank, which would have burst last night. Drained it before it froze.
Dogs are still too stupid to use the solarium to keep warm. Guess they're okay because I hear them barking. Can't do much more than provide a warm place, point it out repeatedly to them and try to get them inside it. They wouldn't go. I think it smells too nice for them now. Not bringing them in the house. Tried that before and it did not go well.
Okay, have to go feed them and get ready for work.
