I would gladly take actual dry cold, but instead we just get these frigid stretches *plus* endless shovelling. Argh!
The next dumb ass who exclaims, βBut itβs a dry cold!β as we dig out from under already the third significant snowfall of the winter is getting a slap upside the head and a screen taped to their face so they can observe humidity readings from Environment Canada.
