How Cold Is Minnesota?

Heather Brown looks at weather data to see if Minnesotans really live in the "icebox of the nation."

[@karynagibson05]

My Dad always said that "It's not cold out, you're just not dressed properly." Enuff said.

[@brittaolson6550]

Sounds like a Minnesota dad!

I grew up in Southern California. I never experienced sub zero temperatures until I got stationed in South Korea. I got to deliver a load up to Edmonton in 1/05. I think it was somewhere around -40°. Not sure. Now I live in Minnesota. Despite the frigid weather, I still enjoy living here.

[@yadabotbingo]

Feeling discomfort in the cold temperatures is all about your gear. Any day the sun is shining in a clear blue sky it's all good in my book, but dressed appropriately you'll likely love being out in it no matter the weather.

[@chuck4714]

Not when it's below zero and windy. Do you even live here

[@yadabotbingo]

@@chuck4714They make winter gear for petite to the rotund in lady's sizes, but men's hunting garb gets it done right. If you're a fancy pants go for ski wear, snowmobiling, or icefishing apparel. Toughen up, Charlise. Try some teflube spray on your shovels. You're welcome.

I been to minneapolis and flew to anchorage Alaska a couple days later and it was just as cold in Minneapolis as Anchorage.

[@corymountain3957]

When people bring that up I am always like damn I’m basically living in Alaska lol

[@DontUputThatEvilOnMe]

Anchorage is by the ocean so that why it’s not that cold there.

lol I was born in Florida and trying to get out of here. Beaches get boring after a while; I want real seasons.

Minnesota is a poor state, it’s true or not?

[@st.peterunner8758]

Glad I live in Florida lol. San Diego before I moved here. Never felt that level of cold before!

[@davidklatzko7111]

My g at the end saying it’s not that cold. Does he also sleep with the window open in the winter?

[@arthurbrumagem3844]

I can dress for the cold not the heat. I can take off all my clothes and won’t get cooler just laughed at and arrested

[@st.peterunner8758]

I hear that all the time but I think it’s just a cope. It’s not that hot for the same amount of time you guys experience cold. There’s 3 months out of the summer where it’s really hot, even here in Florida. The rest of the year is 60-75. If you can’t be comfortable unless your nude in that weather you got a problem. The alternative is literally 6 months of at least freezing temps at night. Point is, it’s much easier to wear shorts and a T shirt and be warm, than bundling up every time I have to go outside or get my kids ready to go anywhere. Sorry for the novel

[@arthurbrumagem3844]

@@st.peterunner8758 the reality is that we all can’t or don’t want to live in the same place or it would get pretty crowded as Florida is becoming

Why is the black child sitting apart from the class? She was only 'with' the group when asked a question by the reporter. Does she associate with any child in that class.

[@yadabotbingo]

Umm, idk....cuz they (she) is racialist? You're signaling your prejudice, not virtue.

@@ldj15432 I guess ya see watcha wanna see. You don't think any of the other children "indentify" as POC? Looks like a diverse bunch of kids to me. Should maybe take a second look. You do know the definition of minority, right? CRT promotes racial divisiveness, btw. Good thing you're not in favor of that indoctrinating poison.

@@generalvanman8270 You're crazy. They aren't teaching CRT in a class that young. And that's not what CRT is.
