Roadside Repairs?

I've noticed a lot of comments in threads about being prepared for flats, repairs, etc.
It's all common sense... but in winter??
There is no way on Gods white earth I'm doing roadside repairs on my commute in the dead of winter. I figure that's what cell phones are for. I have a friendly arrangement with a co-worker with a Ford Expedition to bail me out if needed. Fortunately studded tires are bomb proof and I haven't need help so far.
Yet, I'm curious. Do you guys really repair in extreme weather? I'll bet there are some stories to tell here.
