Head wind leaving work yesterday. Though I only went about halfway home where I had a meeting. My wife picked me up later.

I bought a balaclava yesterday at lunch in anticipation of this morning's cold snap. It worked well. The only thing exposed was from eye brows to bottom lip. I found that if I covered my mouth I wasn't breathing enough air to fuel the muscles. My toes got pretty cold but I survived. I have Woolie Boolie socks and shoe toe covers which helped, but for this morning's 7F (-13C - sounds more hardcore), I think some toe warmers would have been a good idea.

Here's the screen capture from my phone after I got to work.
