your right the snow is probably insulating it from the real cold.

Its flippin cold! I dont care what anyone says. You go stand outside for 5 minutes in -25 weather than come into 65-70 house. It feels like a scorcher!

I know I did it last night just to see what that cold felt like. Let me put it this way everything starts to hurt after a minute or 2. Remember this is just with sweatpants sneakers and a thermal top on. No jacket.

I know it's cold when I'd rather stay home on a Saturday night than go out with friends...BUT if the friends are young they still want to go out. Out we will go.
