Chances of this '100 days of snow'?

I just bought my wife a snow shovel for Xmas, I hope she likes it.

I expect she won't use it, just like lingerie and corsetry I have bought for her in the past.

Even worse than that, you can guarantee it will be the wrong type of snow!!

I would be interested to know how many of you could go to your wardrobes and pick out a set of clothing that would allow you to safely undertake a 5 mile journey on foot at night in -10C? Most people in 63 would have been able too!

I think I qualify :D Amblers steel FS56 warmlined boots + yaktrax pro ice cleats, winter parka rated to -20C. Various layers for upper body and some paratrooper combat trousers not to mention gloves (thermal layer + water resistant outer) and even managed to dig out a hand windable LED lantern with SOS functionality heh. Cheating a bit though as between work which sometimes requires outdoor physical stuff and the odd stint of airsoft (done weekender before in -10C type weather) I'm somewhat prepared.

*So called UK "blizzards" are very rare outside of the hills and uplands. A blizzard is when you have 50mph winds and you're battling against snow blowing sideways freezing your face, not heavy snow falling vertically with a little bit of wind, thats just heavy snow...
