I'd like to hear from everyone who experiences snow in winter: what are your best tips for keeping yourself warm?

I'm never cold, even in winter, so I can't help you out there. I'm the crazy person that doesn't wear a coat, even when it's below freezing.

So...it looks like Peaches baby daddy showed up...

The first born kitten looks just like him. I'm working with my friend to get him neutered and see if I can find him a home as well.

Yup. No denying those kittens are his.

Are you serious?

I was, yes. Serious and apparently rather naive.

My technique is to dress for the weather: jacket, snow pants, tuque, gloves, boots. Then being outside in cold weather is really quite pleasant.
Are you planning a trip?

Nope, I'm just feeling the cold don't pity me though, because the temp hasn't gone below freezing.

Try some thermal underwear. I have a couple of tops I use if I'm struggling.

Within the last week or two, Ribh was complaining about her weather and quoted the high and low temperatures and I had to laugh because they were exactly the same as mine, but it's SUMMER here!!

Ok. I will answer seriously.

It all starts with the proper clothing. Based upon temperature you must have the correct layers. Dress too warmly and you sweat and the sweat actually makes you cold in the end as your clothes get damp. Dress too lightly and you can't stay warm. I dress in easily removable layers so I can add and subtract as needed.

Your feet are very important. Again, proper footwear for the temperature. You do not want your feet getting wet in any way. Footwear that is too tight also leads to cold feet.

Most people, especially women neglect their heads. More heat escapes out your head than any other part of your body. If you are cold and put a proper hat on you instantly feel warmer.

Is this what you are looking for? Do you have specific questions? Are you going to vacation somewhere cold?
