Winter started only just days ago, and cities everywhere are reaching historically below-freezing temperatures. In my city, the temperature reached a record-breaking -6 degrees. And I was not prepared whatsoever. I would usually cancel any plans to stay home in my bed. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get away from my responsibilities this time. As soon as I walked outside, I immediately regretted it as the cold wind chill hit my bare face. I saw others in the streets look unfazed by the cold weather with their ski masks and oversized scarves. I couldn’t help to think that I should have planned my outfit out so much better.
So, I rushed home and got online to find the best cold-weather items essential for staying extra warm this winter. This cold weather is not letting up anytime soon, so I am buying these items ASAP. This list has everything from long johns to hand warmers that will make it so much easier to go outside this winter. You won’t have to stay trapped in your house to avoid the cold weather in the new year. Also, if you know someone struggling this winter, these items will be a wonderful late-Christmas gift to donate to your local shelters!
