There is a saying in Norwegian for this:
Det finnes ikke dårlig vær, bare dårlige klær
It translates to "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing" :)
- retSava 6y agoThe article dives into exactly that quite a bit. And it's not some mantra or "special thing" really - just get dressed so that you're not wet or cold and you can enjoy the environment no matter what the weather is. Warm gloves, waterproof boots/shoes, warm upper body clothes primarily. That's it. I find it nicer to focus on layers on the upper body since it's easier to add/remove according to activity etc, than lower body, and it'll affect the lower body temps more than warming the lower body will affect the upper body.
- ghaff 6y agoThat's certainly true. Although some people who are either from or have gotten used to places where the weather is mostly sunny and temperate year round (like a lot of California) really can't imagine having to live somewhere with a lot of clouds and rain (even light) much less heavy snowfalls in the winter.

- buzzwordninja 6y agoYep, same in Sweden.
