For the rest of the country, having that much snow while people go around their business is... different.

Although the East Coast has had plenty of snow but I don't think they stayed outside cheering..

The fresh snow made the roads kind of slippery but apart from that, it was just another normal winter day. It didn't strike me as especially odd for Klobuchar to hold an outdoor rally.

It was pleasant at the temp and little wind, snow is not that big a deal if it's just a short event. It wasn't like people were out in a blizzard. I thought it was kind of nice, but I live in a state that's used to 6 months of winter.

I'm a fairly recent transplant to SC, and every time the mercury drops to below 70 degrees, a majority of my neighbors will don coats or at least sweatshirts!

they had to truck in snow for several of the shoots in Chaska. Only snow was on the North Side of Buildings. So what was happening on Boom Island today was just a old fashioned winter day in the Twin Cities.
