If you never lived where it snows and were moving North to where it does snow, what would you have liked to have known? What would you do to prepare?

  • learn how to drive on a slippery surfaces
  • building on the previous one - buy a set of winter tires and if needed chains
  • always have spare warm clothes in the car
  • make sure your house gets enough warmth and ventilation to prevent mold
  • keep a huge bag of road salt in a garage
  • get yourself few sets of breathing underwear
  • depending on the outside temperature learn how to dress like an onion

Last but not least, learn to ski/snowboard. Best way to spend time outdoors. Also, develop a taste for a mulled wine.

Does it like, have warm breath to keep you comfortable?

[–] fart_pickle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

More like the underwear that won't make you sweat and if you do, it would get the excess of moisture away from the body.

I know you're joking but I'll answer that it's not a nice to sweat in warm clothing but have it cool down in skin-contact
