Grab a coat, or a surf board

PZ (from Pharyngula) notes how it's "-16°F (-26°C) out there, with 15-20mph winds" this morning in Morris, Minnesota. In the comments of the same post, pablo cites his thermometer in Missouri at 13° F. Must be rough for them...it's going to be a brisk 78° F today in Tampa. And I thought I was going to go all winter without sweating while walking to campus!

Ick. 78°? That sounds abominable.

-20 actually isn't bad, as long as you're dressed appropriately and avoid exposing bare flesh to the air for more than 5 or 10 minutes.

-40 is about where I decide it's wiser to stay home. -40 with any wind, forget it.

Down here we try to expose as much bare flesh as possible, especially in the summer and fall months.
