If I were you I would just sit back and laugh at all us poor sods who have to go through this regularly, every winter. You can stare out at the window at the sleet and say, "how strange... well, it'll be gone soon enough."
(That's what I used to do in San Diego during the rare rainstorms... just curl up with a hot chocolate and giggle at the poor souls who think rain is nothing special, because it rains all the time where they live.)

...Yes but I am a southern poof!
I still saw some guys out with just tshirts and no coats on yesterday in Alnwick!! It must be cold today, my husband put a tshirt under his Newcastle United top to go to the match earlier, no gloves or scarf though, even though the wet sleet was lashing down and he'd have to sit out in that for a couple of hours... Geordie guys, huh!
As Brooke says, I'm sure normal service will be resumed for you shortly and you can laugh at us freezing again...
I took the children out for a walk this afternoon, and after 20 minutes I had frostbitten fingers. This is in the south of England and I am of Paul's persuasion - Geordies are a mystery to me. I understand that in Newcastle dozens of healthy young men expire every week in winter, and all because they haven't yet invented the shirt, jumper or coat up there.

You should see the women too.. most of them out on the town even in this weather will not have a coat, bare arms. My husband saw a girl one day and he said, "Sue, I though she had blue stockings on but I realised she was just cold"....all because they haven't yet invented the shirt, jumper or coat up there.
Apparently I'm not a real Geordie as I wear stupid things like coats and a scarf... the ski longjohns are coming out for work tomorrow!!
