I OC'd around today though I CC'd as well. Glad I was CCing when I fell into a snowbank, though I'm sure my G32 would work covered in snow, it was nice that my coat protected it.

I'll be heading out in the morning, taking someone to a dialysis center at 0600.

I was hoping I'd see some VNG humvees by the time the storm was over :(

Been pretty easy for me. On really cold days (if there's such a thing here...) I wear a t-shirt and my normal sirt (tucked into my trousers) and I have a couple bomber jackets thatare comfortable. Gun stays on the outside and i'm not cold.

Virginia Beach. However, I do not find this state on a whole to be 'cold'. I'm tried and true Fort Wayne, Indiana :p

I normally just were my thermals underneath a thick long sleeve shirt, and my wool beanie and OC just fine with my P93. I try tolayer my thinner clothes rather than put on a thick coat, and it works very good, but when it is cold and raining, I must wear a jacket.

Native to NW Ohio myself. Winters here are a joke. If they were any warmer, I'd wear shorts all the time... even after living here since 1995.

What portion of NW Ohio are you from darthmord? I'm a UT grad.

OT: Even with the snow and cold I've still been openly carrying most places, because I rarely even wear a jacket. If I'm going to outside for any extended period I might put one on, but just going from house to car, car to shop or car to work I don't need it to make it inside comfortably.

Add it (location) to your profile - it helps state specific questions and the mods.

That is unless you are participating in the witness protection program. :)
