buy duo fold long underwear. a few pair.

get a down jacket that covers your arse in the back. jackets will be rated.
go below 15 zero.

a ski mask

mittens that are good below zero.

"hiking boots" that are good way below zero.

your record low in October is 0.

record lows in winter months are 20 below and worse.

you be sure to get the gear I recommended.

the average low in January is 13. You are going to see lots of 4 degree mornings.
the snow makes a crunchy sound when its down into the single digits.


I guess you will get a deep wet snow or two in Oct or Nov and April to come up to your 73".

the tension comes when you get a below freezing morning in the middle of summer. It snowed the day I reported for the draft. it was early august.
You'll want to plan on covering your gardens.

Hmmm. You may want to consider a nice set of chains if you don't have all wheel drive.
You might want to arrange to car pool. If you and your vehicle are not used to it, driving in snow can be an adventure.
