James, you cannot possibly be suggesting that winters are NOT ferocious in Minnesota. I was in Minneapolis in April once and had to use the glassed-in walkways between downtown buildings to avoid going outside. I shudder to think what it would be like in late January . . .

Hehe, now how about we talk about late January in central Saskatchewan, Canada? How about a little -52*C (-61.6*F) with the wind chill? No biggy.

You could say all Saskatchewan weather is like that. In my city, our record high is 40.6*C (105.1*F), the lowest recorded temperature is -50*C (-58*F), and our record low with wind chill is -60.9*C (-77.6*F).

A bunny hug is a Saskatchewan term for what most others call a hooded sweater.

Haha, it's MUCH better than the extreme heat you American weirdies face! I start melting at 29*C (84.2*F), and this is in a pretty arid climate.

I can happily live in a tent in the xeriphytic forests of SW Madagascar for a year with no AC, but I HATE being cold. My hands get too stiff to type when the house is 68F/20C.

While I don't dispute that weather might be quite variable in certain places, having a location still can help a person weigh the applicability of advice from different people. The odds are high that someone's growing experience in NH is going to be a lot more similar to mine (in Boston) than is someone's growing experience from NC.
