Im in Boston and I’m 54 Never experienced it this bad before. Boston broke a record last held in 1881 so I assume the same is true for where you are.

It was -8. I remember this so well. Always thought it was the coldest I’d see, but it was -8 this morning with the sun out.

-78°C is equivalent to -108°F, which is 195K.
^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)

tbeliNAfter all this time, you still don't believe in climate change?
Number 1 education in the country and it was wasted on you.

OP-
I’m in Upton and I have an old pic of my dash thermometer of -22 in my driveway. I’d guess it was ‘04 or so.

Thanks everyone for the advise. Turns out the thermostat I bought was also bad. A friend told me to try connecting the 2 wires that go to the thermostat and the heat came on. Getting another new thermostat now.

All the teachers contracts are public record if you Google "(district) teacher contract" you can find the salaries. I found it yesterday but not right now. The algorithm is swamped by the strike.
But If I remember it correctly to make the 85k the people against the strike are whining about. You have to be a teacher for 8 years with a masters.

How do you count your age in distance?

Yes. Part of my kitchen is cantilevered over the back yard with no foundation underneath so it is always a few degrees colder than the rest of the house. This morning at 9 am it was 47 degrees in the kitchen and 64 degrees in the dining room where the thermostat is.
The dilemma, should I pay thousands to add a foundation or get takeout on the few days per winter that it is a real inconvenience.
