46 which sounds better than -5, but something about the humidity down here that makes it seem much colder.

And like I said, it did not bother me too much.

I grew up in coastal Virginia, and am familiar with the Southern "damp cold" that makes you shiver long after you've gone inside for warmth.

Still, I'll take 40s and rain over -5 and 40 mph snow.

A number of years back I was out in northeastern Montana deer hunting in early November, think it was single digit temps in the mornings with dusting of snow . Never really felt cold . Got back here the day before the VA gun season opened and went out the following morning wearing the same amount of clothes and it was 32ish here and I thought I was going to freeze to death . Yes humidity plays a tremendous factor as far as I’m concerned !
