At Tim Botterbusch's house it was a nippy -18 degrees! No doubt about it, it's a bone chiller today. But make no mistake -- it's being exposed to the elements that can be life threatening, with wind chill temps in some parts of the ADKs as low as -30 degrees.

This warning, from the National Weather Service, is a tad scary:
