Everything above..Ive used in some of the coldest badlands in the US

Grew up in Barrow AK? There's no place in the continental US where
the "average winter temp during the day" is -20F.

True, but in northern Minnesota and Michigan that often is the average
temperature for individual days. I happened to visit southern MN for a
couple of winter months ca. 1970, and there was a week where the high
temperature was -30F. Made the tractors sound kind of interesting when
starting up cold. During the '80s every northern MN winter had at least
a few days of -40 to -45 temperatures; I think it's gotten a bit milder
there in recent years, although things like -54F in 2005 and -57F in 1996
still happen.

Ayup.

then there is snow fall "averages" as well. Growing up in Michigans
UP...average snow fall per winter is 220 inches. A bit more than 20
feet. Fortunately..it tends to pack down a bit.

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie
