Weather Channel, Minnesota Style...

When it hits negative 20 with windchill, 
Minnesotans finally don the gloves...

 ... and fire up the boot warmers (Julie - aren't you jealous??!  Yes, they DO work, and yes, we DO love them!!)

 ... and put the gloves in the fridge to warm up...

... and still beg to go outback on the porch and play... with a smile on our face :)

When it hits zero...


the "why do we have to wear our coats, it's WARM outside" whines begin...


... and capes become the cover of choice...



When it actually breaks 32,


We can finally chip off enough snow to build the annual mammoth snow man



And in the rare instance that it actually reads 50 degrees,


Shoes suddenly become 'optional equipment'
And shorts actually make their yearly debut...
