A few years ago I bought a new wintercoat while I was in the progress of loosing weight but since I bought it I gained weight and as a result that coat has been in my closet for years. Hoping one day I could finally wear it because I didn’t want to sell it. Today I tried it on and it fits although it’s a bit tight in some area’s. If everything goes well I can finally wear it in a month or 2 I guess. I’m so happy :slight_smile:

I actually came here again to shout out of the roof top how happy I am about the earth being pure white and how I’m going to make meself a Cardamom coffee and enjoy the view. If I could I would give you a coffee atm, so hopefully this virtual :coffee: will do, cheers! Enjoy the the weather while it lasts, there might not be many more white winters. :slight_smile:

Just found this; https://time.com/5712904/adjust-to-cold-weather/
I think I’ve been used to cold most my life. Atm, there’s -6,5 outside and inside +14,5 degrees. Personally that’s close to my preference. So when you guys talk wintercoat, I think you wierd and go out in an autum or summer jacket depending on the wind. Or is it me who is wierd? xD

I think half the college kids (guys) at ISU must be Finns. In blizzards, they are walking from building to building wearing summer shorts, a hoodie and sneakers, sometimes flip flops. That seems to be the official school uniform. :snowman: (It’s really because they didn’t do their laundry.) :womans_clothes: :laughing:

@choitrio I’m really happy that you find the pictures so good thank you :slight_smile::kissing_heart:
Send to a photo contest, I would not dare then but… :face_with_hand_over_mouth: I am not good enough for that :grin:
But it makes me happy when I can make someone happy now and then, And maybe even can bring a little light into the darkness :slight_smile::hugs::heart:
And Sometimes I just hope too much :grin:

You are one of those who freeze me to ice :cold_face::cold_face: :joy:
Because it seems that you have nothing to wear in winter,
Or you always have summer :grin:
I am also not a cap guy, But it should already be warm around me :coffee::coffee: with coffee

@porkypine90_261 Yeah I do that nowadays as well, though staying for longer periods with only shorts isn’t that good for your body temp. Though your body is pretty adaptable, in the article I linked they showed that one can essentially prep once body for colder weather. I have just done that since I was a baby and I enjoy it, since it’s normal for me. Someone from a hotter climate might have more issues, similar to how I would struggle in hotter climates.
@gaby_heitmann_975 Lithuania a few summers back was too far south, It was only a few degrees warmer, but it had no wind or movement in the air at all and the sun felt hotter. Before I went I kept complaining about the damn hot summer, when I came back I was thankful. Warmer weather affects my sleep patterns very negatively, no sleep means I’m in a bad mood and cranky xD. I suspect traveling to the equator would be like traveling to hell for me xS, 0h sleep and I would go up the walls and out of my mind.

Oh yea. I much prefer cold to hot weather. I get very indolent when it’s hot. You’ll find me in a hammock in the shade. :sunglasses:

I grew up in foggy San Francisco weather so to me. at the beach, fully clothed but not coats, just a sweater and I’m fine. Just my ears get cold from the wind. And out of state visitors are FREEZING :laughing: It’s not even freezing just maybe 45 F but damp, blowing wind. It must go right through them. (And these are guys from Snow climates - bunch of wimps, can’t even take a summer day in San Francisco. :rofl:

What was it Mark Twain wrote. " The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco ."

San Francisco weather.

Yea. that is typical here. But no snow right now. That ‘atmospheric river’ that passed through was a bit too warm and melted off the snow we had but didn’t rain either. It must have dumped it’s water load in California.
