Living through that cold snap, wind chills in the teen to twenty BELOW mark.....what do you

[a kennedy]

put your thermostat at??? We’ve got ours set at 71. When not in the cold snap, we usually keep it at 68. How bout you??

1. The older I get, the higher I keep it.

These days, 73 day and 69 night is my norm.

2. Usually cover up or turn my small electric

heater on in my office.

3. Thermostat rarely changes, but I'm looking at a...

four or five blanket night.

4. 62.

But I have a wood stove that runs full-time....I will be firing up my basement woodstove this PM....that helps to keep the furnace from tripping on.....and adds additional floor heat on the 1st floor.

5. 66-68 regardless. Large temperature changes keep throwing my piano out of tune.

My house is old; the insulation isn't the greatest and my heating bills this winter have been horrific. So the last thing I'm going to do is turn the heat up more when it gets colder - I just wear more clothes. The wind chill factor doesn't mean anything unless you're outside with exposed skin; houses and other inanimate objects are not affected by wind chill.

6. I live in Montana so we're used to the cold.

62 at night and 72 during the day…which is warm but I do t like to bundle up during the day when I’m home.

7. Why?

8. It's currently +7 F here with a wind chill of -11 F.

So far it has not made my apartment chilly, but I've got a door blocker laid across the bottom of one window where drafts sometimes come in. I also have my outdoor wall A/C unit blocked off with a plastic cover and a large, heavy wool sweater draped over it.

And naturally, I wear warmer clothing indoors, too.

I need to go outdoors later and am planning what to wear. Probably fleece leggings under a pair of sweat pants, a warm shirt under a sweatshirt, my warmest coat with a fake fur lined hood and a hat under the hood. I have a pair of thick, heavy wool mittens that I use for temps like this. I always wear an N95 mask when indoors away from home so I'll just wear it outdoors, too.
