HAHA John - Yeah, growing up near Houston, we'd normally get about an inch of snow once every 7 years. If you blinked, you'd miss it!
But as I said, not nearly as much beautiful vegetation way up here as down there. Most widely planted crop here is hay. Most other crops are simply too much risk.
Let's see....the coldest we've encountered here was -50.6F, but that was for a VERY brief time. I stayed up that night as at that time we needed the LP stove on just to keep the inside of the house above freezing!! I went outside to experience that kind of cold. Can't say I'd ever wanna do it again, but -20 and -30 temps are nothing to me now. I rarely put on winter boots anymore unless I plan on being outside for most of the day or plan on walking through some deep snow.
Before my old ankle injury came back with a vengeance, I used to go out with my trusty metal snow scoop (https://michigan-made.com/shop/household-products/silver-bear-snow-scoop/)...(but without the wheels) and spend sometimes 5-6 hours straight out there enjoying the quiet winter nights. I'd wear slip-on shows (uninsulated), a lightweight canvas jacket, winter flap hat, and about 50% of the time not even use gloves. Wouldn't dress warmer till it got below -20F, or was quite windy. It's absolutely amazing how peaceful and quiet it is with snow all around!!

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
