Seeing that this snow has taken us completely by surprise, I trust that many are still out on the road and potentially too far from shelter to make it inside tonight.

[ So yer gonna get a survival guide whether you want it or not. ]

• Keep hydrated. It is easy to forget, in these conditions.
• Putting on a hat goes a long way.
• You are in more danger if you stop shivering. Keep moving, and do not sleep in freezing conditions.
• Alcohol does not keep you warm. It only gives the illusion of heat while making the situation worse.
• Your extremities will be the first to go. Expose your hands and feet as little as possible.
• Overheat too much and you will sweat, which in the long run, will make you much colder than when you started.
• Loose layers are better at keeping heat than tight athletic wear.
• Find or form a barrier against the wind.
• Clean clothing will insulate better than dirty clothing.

[ Take it from a professional hobo. ]

I am honestly amazed that such a group would even gather enough followers to exist. They barely have a cause.

I seem to recall the competing causes of "increasing the ocean size" and "increasing the land mass", both of which are utterly inane. Not to mention technically impossible.
