10. Minnesota reaction:

1-4: Maybe I'd better find some shoes and put away my flip-flops.
4-8: Maybe I should see if I can find a pair of gloves.
8-12: I guess we need to clear off the driveway.
12-24: The cat doesn't want to go outside to hunt; he's just sleeping on a radiator all day.
24-36: The boss doesn't complain if we're a few minutes late for work.
36+: I finally had to start wearing boots.
