What is it with you folks from Buffalo? I thought you were acclimated to cooler climes.

I worked a HS varsity softball game with a colleague who hailed from Buffalo. Temps were around 50, but the wind was blowing with 25 mph gusts towards home. He had the bases, and not only did he layer up with about five layers, he also wore black ski gloves and a black knit cap that covered everything but his eyes. I was surprised he could move out there.
