I hate puffer coats too! That's one style that should have stayed in the past, as far as I'm concerned!


When you live in the Dakotas where we were, warmth was fashionable!! LOL

Oh my gosh @KingstonsMom @Shanus I thought I was the only one that hated them! I have never seen one person that actually looks good (or comfortable, lol!) in a puffer coat! So ugly and awkward looking on everyone! I thought it would be a short-lived trend but nope, year 4 and I see more than ever. ugh Michelin Man is all that comes to mind when I see people wearing them!

I would never survive living in North Dakota.  I'm cold at 70 degrees!  It's been snowing lightly all morning here in NE Ohio, and the heavier stuff is coming later in the day.  The lake (Erie) is still rather warm, so when the cold air crosses over it, it picks up the moisture and dumps it on us!

 

What I dread most is the first snow because everyone around here forgets that you can't drive like a nut, as they normally do.  There will be lots of accidents, and I don't want to be one of them!  I put my 160 pounds of weights in Mr. Mustang's trunk last night and filled him up with gas.  He's ready to go (just not as fast as usual)!

I can say personally that not all of ND and SD are experiencing the weather that has been shown on the national news recently.

 

We do have cold temperatures, but the sun has been shining everyday and in my area, we do not have as much as 1 snowflake to report.

 

The 'reporters' need to show something sensational to get on the news.  They probably picked the worst of the worst for each state.  The snow, cold and bad roads are nothing new for either state; I know I lived there for more than 20 years and returned a few years ago.
