I think you and other posters saying "Eh, it's just weather, put on a coat" missed the entire point of OP's initial post. Read the first post in a thread before you chime in, maybe?

OP's daughter has Raynaud's, a condition that is triggered by cold weather. It's not that the OP or her kid are "softies" who are merely wimpy about a few flakes of snow. But you missed that.

The DD has to weigh colleges' programs, and the fact she really likes these particular colleges, against the realities of living in places where her condition might be affected by the temperatures. The OP came here to look for some real-life advice from those who have something constructive to say. Choosing a college is tough enough; having a condition that could potentially limit things like where one goes go to college, where one can take a job, etc. makes it even tougher. The DD likely can manage the Reynaud's OK, even in a pretty cold place, with certain precautions. But it's smart of OP to seek out others' experiences with the weather at these schools. [/quote]
