We don't experience much really, really cold weather but we have recently had some minus temps and snow.

One of our villages was on the Arctic Circle. Here in Maine we have only had below zero weather at night for a couple of weeks, with day temps in the single numbers. The weather predictions show a warmer pattern starting next week.<br /><br />We know how to handle cold weather; but the people in the south U.S. aren't prepared. There have been numerous deaths - they are scared and suffering. <br /><br />You and yours take care<br />the Ol'BuzzardOl'Buzzardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075162476463971258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666990364305390259.post-1990240908643979492021-02-17T03:57:17.300-07:002021-02-17T03:57:17.300-07:00Where I live (Southern New England), I don't v...Where I live (Southern New England), I don't venture out for my walks if the temps hit teenage years. Instead I'll go to the local mall to get my 6,000 steps in. I think the last time I did a walk in that cold of temp, it took me quite a few hours to thaw out enough to feel my hands and fingers.G. B.

Real fur is incredibly warm. But overall I frown on fur. A friend of mine gifted me a rabbit fur scarf...and it's the warmest scarf ever...I sweat!
