It's all relative. We see morning temps in the 20's infrequently here and I have never enjoyed commutes at that temp until today. My afternoon ride home at 24 F felt like a ride on a balmy Spring day compared to the single digit temp this morning.

You Hogtown folks don't see many freezes, but I do recall a few occasions of snow when I lived in G'ville.
