PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Subfreezing temperatures across much of the U.S. left millions of Americans facing dangerous cold as Arctic storms left four dead and knocked out electricity to tens of thousands in the Northwest, brought snow to the South, and walloped the Northeast with blizzard conditions that forced the postponement of an NFL game.

    I haven’t checked yet to see if my little dog has decided to poop in the house yet. He’s a chihuahua/dachshund mix so he has a short coat, but he refuses to wear a sweater or a jacket, so he won’t go out the dog door. My big dog doesn’t care. She’s got a big thick coat, so she goes outside and does her favorite winter activity- eat snow. She doesn’t care if it’s -40. That said, it’s currently -6, -16 with wind chill (in American dumbness units) here in west-central Indiana, so we’ll probably be doing some mopping today.

    Edit: Yep, he pooped in the house.
