But you should be able to cool off by thinking that it is about 47* here right now.

That's the same weather we are having in the suburbs of Chicago, and I love it. It's generally much colder and below zero is not unusual for this time of year. I'm not sure is this reminds me of late fall or early spring, but it's definitely not winter. It's still cold enough to be wearing comfy sweaters and sweatshirts, but it's not that bone freezing cold that seems to permeate even the warmth of a good heating system.
