Or—choose to live somewhere where it NEVER gets that cold. Scott Adams (Dilbert) did this—once after nearly freezing to death (no coat and a broken down car in upstate NY), he moved to CA so he’d “never again risk death by just going outside.”

My senior son, looking at colleges, has two criteria: 1) in person instruction (how we miss the little things) and 2) “somewhere not too cold.” That means winter high temps in the 50s-60s.

When I lived in a cold climate I’d never drive anywhere during the winter months — even in a mostly suburban environment — without my winter camping gear in my vehicle.
