6. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.

7. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.

Well, in that case I'll just assume it's C (which makes sense as that's what they use in Canada). That's not ice cold.

0 degrees Celcius is not that cold, but technically, it is the temperature where water freezes, so it could be considered "ice cold".

Just trying to help here.
