[quote=spdrun]Yaddadee, bladdadee, dah. Many European cities are just as cold/snowy as MSP, yet people do manage to walk more than the average obese American in a warm climate.[/quote]
No they’re not. Most of Europe is decided warmer than the mid-west.
In January, MSP averages as high of 24F and low of 7F.
Berlin in January is 35F high, 26F low.
Geneva is 38F high and 28F low.
Stockhold is 30F high, 23F low.
Even Prague is warmer, 34F high, 24F low.
It’s because of the Atlantic current, and those 10 degrees and 20 degrees on the low do make a big difference.
