      This meme makes no sense. Dry cold is worse than humid cold.

      Edit: I mean the air, not your body or clothes. Wind chill is so much worse in dry air.

        well.

        Ii’ll take -40 (0r worse) over just-at-freezing and rainy. that shit seeps, and nothing wholesome ever seeps. when it’s brutally cold out, you can just pack more on. (or stay inside.)

        The meme, though, is a joke about the otherside of the spectrum. (“It’s a dry heat.”)

        No way man. Having dry skin in the cold is way easier to tolerate than damp skin. When I come out of the gym covered in sweat and it’s -20 outside it’s 10 times worse than when I go in.
