It gets that bad for so long that you have to tuck the covers in all winter?

In KY??
I get it, WI has Winter.
But just this morning read town I'd previously lived, Newburgh, IN (e. adjacent to Evansville) forecast was 65*.
Gave an icy look to my wife as the snow flew since we're here due to her career/family.
IMO southern IN, KY (not necessarily mountains), TN have the most beautiful, generally balanced weather in the entire nation.
Ideal Corvette cruiser weather 9-10 months a year, for sure.
Area gets a whopping 4-5 weeks of cold, once in a blue moon a 'huge' (25") snowfall.
Now those are winters I can get behind.
Lived in Fairbanks AK, so WI weather's manageable but will always miss Mason-Dixon line weather.
Way too early to be storing those 2 gems, bub.

2022 C6 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
Ok, I hear y'all and no our winters are not that bad here. The Camaro is a garage queen but I got the vette to be my driver. I am having shoulder surgery on Monday so no gear rowing for several weeks for me. Winter arrives here tomorrow with a high of 36 and once the salt hits the streets ( could be next week or next month) those 2 cars are put up. BTW I know what real winter is, was stationed in North Dakota and my wife is a 'yooper!

C7s can do all kinds of amazing things!
eta: contrary to popular belief, the seat heaters do work well.
