It’s been bitterly cold for the last several days in not only Manhattan and Kansas, but also for most of the United States.
According to USA Today, around 150 million Americans have been under some sort of wind chill warning or advisory. That’s just about half of the population.
A number of videos and pictures have gone viral over the last week thanks to the cold, most notably Chiefs head coach Andy Reid’s mustache freezing during Sunday’s game against Miami.
Some other viral videos include:

Thankfully, we’ll start seeing temperatures climb starting Wednesday, though there will be a brief cold snap against Thursday night through Saturday. Temperatures next week are projected to be in the upper 30s or low 40s.
