Good things about freezing cold weather:

  1. Burn more calories being outside
  2. Kills bugs
  3. Gives lots of northern tourist dollars to Gulf Coast businesses
  4. Cross country skiing
  5. Kills germs, so less flu
  6. No lightning storms
  7. Cozy evenings spent in front of the fireplace reading a good book
  8. You don’t have snow falling when it gets really cold
  9. I don’t have to sweat
  10. Less confusing than freezing hot weather
  11. The Iditarod Sled Dog Race!
