Where are you from? Lol, pretty much anything that's wet can freeze when temperatures get below 32°f If you don't have warm cloths and winter items, you definitely need to go get them because it does get cold. Snow and ice will depend on where in the state you live, and you can keep an eye on the weather forecast to prepare for storms. I suppose some other valid info would be not to let your home get too cold. If heat isn't run, your pipes can and will freeze, causing a bunch of issues with your water. Fun fact, if your nose is runny or your eye lashes are wet from crying or something, it can freeze just like your wet hair, lol The cold does get cold enough that it can hurt your face too. Gloves and a winter hat are a lofe saver. Don't try and clean snow off your car or shovel a walk way without them. I'll also repeat to be careful when driving. If you aren't comfortable driving in snowy, wet, icey conditions, then don't do it. Black ice can be very dangerous because you can't see it on the roads. If you have any specific questions, let me know. Stay warm and stay safe

Whoa. That's...wow. So when you say "how do I deal with winter " you don't mean "how can I have fun during winter". I don't think I can help you with stuff like "I didn't know my hair could freeze" because I just don't think about things like that anymore.

If you didn't take any winter items with you, you must get some. There are several discussions in this forum on what you need as far as clothing and general winter stuff like shovels, spikes, salt, etc.

Your username does not apply anymore because you're going to have new experiences every day. Treat every day like that and start thinking about things with weather in mind.

Yeah be careful not to stare to long. Or spend to much time outside. With the cold temps here your eyes could get frozen shut. Be careful out there

Idk I thought it was pretty funny 🤣🤣 not completely wrong either, if it got cold enough that technically could happen

You're talking to someone from a country near the equator who's never spend a winter in Maine and is earnestly asking for advice. Repeat: not funny. Pretty much the definition of being an asshole.

I answered OP's question and commented multiple times to help them. Also, if you read through, they HAVE been through a winter and seen snow, just not this cold. Also, yes, it is possible for it to get so cold someone's eye could freeze its just not going to be as likely for it to get that cold in Southern Maine.
