Yes, I do live in a northern clime not far from a great lake. 20 below last week. Not much snow, but record cold. We usually don't drop to that extreme. Schools closed. No mail. No snow plows. Few people went out. Too cold for a Westie. That's cold.

I've seen those battery powered gloves and various heatpack devices. Not for me. I'm starting to worry about landfills, and one more disposable thing is a nuisance. I tried battery powered socks once. Too hot.

I've seen people suggest the two layer path: a liner glove, then maybe a mitten over it.

In gloves the winning combination appears to be Gore-tex shell with Thinsulate lining.
