Not only can you survive the weather, you do it in style.

Yea now I just need to get clothing to survive under 40 degrees haha. Like literally, I've never been in more than three or four inches of snow.

Can't remember the last time there was less than that on the ground. Northeast problems.

And I know this sounds absurd, but I don't even know what kind of shoes you wear in that. I imagine everyone walking around in boots, but maybe that's not right? Idk.

Boots are really the only option. Source: I work/live/went to school in the Midwest.

What kind of boots do you wear?

[radio1nowhere]

I realized yesterday that I don't have enough winter wear if I'm going to be at school in Philly. As in, I don't have any winter wear. #FutureSouthernExpat

SAME. It almost never gets cold enough where I live that a hoodie over a long-sleeve t-shirt would be insufficient. And forget about snow gear..

Just realizing that this will be a problem with 75% of the schools I applied to

What kind of boots do you wear?

Actually have two pairs. One waterproof pair like typical work boots for general rain, sleet and snow, and a more intense half rubber, insulated pair for blizzard treks and 8inch plus snow.

Brands? The guys in the fashion thread suggested Sorels or LL Beans.
What's the weather supposed to be like around the time of ASW?

Got a pair of columbia ones with the omni heat. once they were broken in they were perfect. Got them on sale though.

The trek to class this morning was...terrible to say the least...

And I have a pair of Timberlands that go up to the knees, lace-up, wool-lined, the works!

What do you expect the weather to be like in Philly for ASW?

[idissent]

Also hats! I spent a few months in the north during the polar vortex and boots + socks + hats saved my life. And then you get to come back south to visit family and act like a hardened northerner.

I hate to steer away from the winter fashion discussion for a second, but U. Penn admissions hasn't tweeted about a decision day tomorrow yet. Every other admit day has had a tweet right?

Guys--snow day

Normal University operations are suspended for Thursday, March 5, 2015 beginning at 1:30pm. Evening classes are also cancelled.

Essential University staff and all Health System physicians and staff are required to report to work at their regularly scheduled start time. Please exercise caution and take your time in traveling to work, if possible utilize public transit if available.

I think all UR2s ITT will agree that Dean Post is essential.

[nickhalden]

Just to update everyone, @PennLawAdmiss tweeted out that they're closed this afternoon. They are reopening tomorrow morning, so that doesn't preclude a decision Friday. We'll find out tomorrow!
