It's thundering, in the middle of February. It's -9 F outside.

Weird.

That's the wind blowing. It's so strong tonight that it sounds like thunder.

Yes. I was startled by the sound too.

Flip flops were not a good idea when I was walking across campus from Georgia to Whity at 1 AM...

How do you DEAL with temperatures like that? I just read that in northern Minnesota, it's -30 F. I don't think I've ever felt temperatures under 20 F.

Lots of layers, mittens, hats, scarves. Don't spend more time outside than you need to. Having grown up here, I don't find it too bad usually. Some days it's ridiculous, like when it gets down to -30 with the windchill, but overall, there are ways to deal. I think it helps that I'm usually a very warm person, so I don't get cold as easily. We get the extremes here - -30's with the windchill in the winter, and then in the 90's plus high humidity in the summer (that I don't like...I don't do well in heat). I always love going places where people are all bundled up, and I'm in shorts.
