In 1993 when I took a position in a southwestern US location with a company based in the Twin Cities I had to go up there for two or three weeks in February. I stayed in a downtown hotel in Minneapolis and for the first time ever encountered a heated underground parking garage having driveway doors for vehicles to hold the heat inside! I like to walk and so wandered around in the skyways. At one point I thought this is crazy; I am going to bundle up, go outside and walk, at least around the block. I tried but could not breath well enough as the air was so cold.

Today it should get to 75F where I am at present for which I am quite thankful. Cold weather is not for me (it never was).
