[sole vintage]

curious if USPS delivers in this

Nope they shutdown.

 

[Magic33]

Makes no damn sense

It's 48 degrees in the Bay Area and it's gonna get up to the mid 60s. Love it.

Y'all can miss me with that polar vortex noise

 

[Top Boy]

Man it's -20 outside

I bought a dope Nike Storm Fit coat off of eBay about 5-6 years ago for a steal and the weather has never been bad enough to pull it out

Triple layered up and the only thing cold was my legs

 

[cragmatic]

Yeah, I don't understand ppl who choose to move to the Midwest . **** is miserable

It’s only for a few days usually that it gets this bad.

Better than losing your entire home to a hurricane like a lot of places in the south, we also have summers that aren’t insanely hot.

These boys need to experience this polar vortex to get some hair on their chest

Thermal, hoodie, Canada Goose
Thermal pants, heavy sweats
Some kind of boots, gloves, beanie and scarf

Should be good to go if I was over there. My buddy actually took a couple day trip out there, horrible timing.

As if THIS is normal

 

[kingkoopa]

Man we pull out the grill in the 50s

 

[AZwildcats]

I've never felt it this cold outside. No joke.

What the ****

 

[harlemtothebronx]

My condolences Chicago.

Sheesh.

 

[John Wick]

I lived in the mid west before in kansas it got cold as hell there so i know yall feelin it!

Glad to be out the mid west

 

[putting in work]

Currently 28 degrees in NYC...

Not that bad to me...

 

[Top Boy]

It's really not that bad

Assuming your outer wear is on point you'll be perfectly fine, couldn't even feel the cold this morning when it was -20

-13 now

 

[arstyle27]

Even crazier is that we gonna hit 45° on Sunday lololol. That's an 80° swing in 2-3 days.

I’m saying. it’s been in the 30s and 40s most the winter in mpls but this is trash.

Whoever said it doesn’t get hot is wildin. I remember working and it was 107 out and super humid.

 

[thekillerj23]

I live in Chi now and yes it's cold but anything under 5 degree is all the same. But people freaking out, unless you outside or homeless, nothing to worry about, stay inside with heat and it's all the same. I took uber to work today, walked 5 steps and was inside, didn't freeze to death lol

it's beginning to be normal though

Normal as in the entire year doesn't have subzero weathers.

Just a wild statement to make.

Plus how long are people REALLY outside

 

[niketalker23]

It’s going to be 64 and sunny today.

 

[mplsdunk]

People do go outside though. Saw some utility workers fixing a power line all day and night last nigh. Felt bad for them.

Of course it goes without say that some jobs require folks to be outside but I am referring to take metro/drive to work in a building type folks.

Living somewhere whethere the average Jan temp is 27 vs. 41 isn't that significant of a difference to say, "People are crazy to move there."

Cold is cold at a certain point

 

[a blinkin]

Chiberia

 

[mplsdunk]

Trust me there is a huge difference between 0 and -30.

But yeah it isn’t always like this. It’s one or two weeks a year. We’ve been 30s and 40s a lot.

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

Y'all frontin. I've lived in southeastern Michigan and DC, there's a significant difference in how cold it is. That late October - early April winter is some b.s.
