[MR] OT snow

[Glynis Gwynedd]

Wool tunics work really well in lieu of coats for working in the snow. I
have one that has a flannel lining - wore it over a t-shirt and long john
shirt. Kept me good and warm, and no problems with snow melting through.
Linen liripipe hood kept the wind off my neck while allowing my head to
cool, though a ball cape on inside the hood kept most of the heat in. All in
all, I was pretty darn comfy. :)
