It is the high altitude that does it.  One of my coldest/miserable memories is from El Capitan Mountains.

We're supposed to be getting another storm too. I'm a pessimist when it comes to New Mexico weather though, it's always changing.

We got hammered when Denver did and it only takes a few inches to shut the city down. They let everyone go home early the day it started snowing and then told us it would be fine if we were late the next day. Over half of the customers scheduled that day cancelled anyway.

From my years in New Mexico, the only weather that I would count on was it will snow during spring break.

When I was a kid I remember it snowed for several easters in a row. Never failed, we could get absolutely nothing all winter and then BAM! snow on easter

If only it was cold enough to think about hats here in the UK. It has been so mild I haven't needed a coat during alot of December and even now only need a light jacket over a shirt for work. Unfortunately we aren't having warm pleasant state weather, just very grey rainy Brit weather that makes the winter drag on with extra S.A.D.ness.

My daughter (Rebekah, aged 9) wants to have a white Christmas like we had occasionally when I was a lad. Didn't have any this year, or any of her previous 8 years, and doesn't look like it is going to in the near future if you believe the global warming doom merchants.

I wear a 'buff' when I go out into the hills or in the sun - but not in pirate fashion.

I DEFINITELY FEEL YOU HERE!  Living in Phoenix, people don't realize that there is very little to keep the heat in at night, so I will go out for an evening of drinkin' with my buddies, and ofcourse it turns into a night of it... I will be on my way home and I will be SHIVERING!  I have heard most the heat of your body is lost out the top of your dome, but I have experienced that first hand.  Now when I am going out and about, I always carry a Beanie with me now that my Sis got me for a Christmas a few years back (Love you Sis  :@`)... It looks pretty dope, its durable, and no matter the weather it gets the job done.  Dark Gray with a Emblem I wear off to the side that reads "FREE MOVING" with a snowflake at the bottom.  They aught to make one of those "WE SALUTE YOU..." commercials for the man who invented the Beanie!  I'll Drink To Him Tonight!
Peace

I really understand the cold head thing.  Living here in Wyoming it is cold for several months out of the year and when it warms up a little the wind blows so hard that it still doesn't feel warm.  I just wear a beanie and keep warm that way.  Besides, I have found that I would rather wear a beanie than worry about the 50 MPH winds destroying my carefully constructed combover.

Well said my brother, Last I checked, a Combover never looked that good swaying in the breeze.  Big Ups to you!  O0

I decided to originaly shave it off because of cold weather. :o

I decided that I wouldn't have beanie hair if I choped it off. It worked, then I got lazzy and regrew my hair till a few months ago.

Brother, I hear that.  Wake up early to hit the Gym, and let me say, this thing collects all the lint from inside my Hoodie/fleece on its way out the neck whole.
