-
Thermal base layer + warm mid-layer + windproof winter coat
-
Mittens, a warm toque, and a face covering (neck gaiter/balaclava) for wind chill protection
-
Insulated boots with good traction—light snow + cold often means hidden ice
-
If you’re driving any distance: keep blankets, a charger, and booster cables in the vehicle.
Weather Trivia
Clear winter mornings like today often happen when drier air moves in—but colder air can still be dangerous. Even with sunshine, a modest breeze quickly strips heat from exposed skin, which is why wind chills can stay in the -30s long after sunrise.
