Yes, it does. There is a qualitative difference at about 7 to 10F, when the corners of your mouth and eyes start to ice up. It got down to -24F once where I lived in Indiana, and walking around outside is quite different from 10F. I drove 65 miles on the interstate that day and my car was sending out as much vapor clouds when I got done as it did when I started the car. My eldest is moving to Alaska in a few months [with our soon to be born granddaughter], and they need to get the cars ready for as much as -70F for some winter travel for supplies, though where they will live does not get much colder than it does here in Jacksonville [USCG station in Valdez]. At 10F at least you don't have to worry about the differential freezing solid on you or the flat spot on the tires becoming permanent. I liked living in S. Florida, personally, though my Spanish was not good enough to spend much time in Miami. BillR Jacksonville FL 1981 300SD 291k miles
