I'd rather wear layers. Then I can shed them as needed or put them back on. Last week it was 18 in the mornings and 70 in the afternoon then back to 50 before I got off work.
Same as it will start out cold and be short sleeve by the afternoon most of the time.
We are having winter this year supposed to be 14 tonight. I have seen it colder but not many times.
In 83 got down to 2 and stayed below freezing here for 10 or 11 days.
I don't know how people up north didn't become extinct that winter.
The coldest it got here at my house that time was 6 above, on Christmas morning.
About 2 days before Christmas 1989 it got down to 1 above, which is the coldest I remember. We had just moved into the house we're still living in a week before. I'd let water drip in all the faucets, inside and out, so the pipes wouldn't freeze. Unfortunately I never thought about the P-trap for the shower, which is under the house. It froze up during the night and flooded the whole back of the house, and my wife was 8-1/2 months pregnant with our first. Fun times.
