<p>As someone who lives in the lake effect snow belt in northern Indiana, I always find these threads so funny. (Funny in a sweet way - not funny in a mean way! :)</p>
<p>The ONLY time my kids or myself wear snow boots is when we shovel. (And we shoveled in the FEET not inches this past winter.) And it takes pretty much zero degree weather for us to throw on anything other than a spring jacket or hoodie. </p>
