Great things to do when it's snowing:
*drink tea
*drink coffee
*really, any preferred hot beverage
*I write this as if I'm enjoying a hot beverage at the moment, but in fact I'm drinking room temperature water mixed with a powdered drink mix, because I lack the patience to heat water (and then wait for it to cool down enough to drink, what is this, and endurance trial?!?) in the morning.
*Okay, most of the time. Not just the morning.
*I do like the hot water dispensers at work, though.
*Mostly I fill up my (glass) water bottle with hot water to keep my hands warm at my desk. Like a hot water bottle, but when it cools down, you can drink it! Efficient.
*Which is to say, hydration is important when it's snowing! (I mean, it's important whether it's snowing or not, but I was trying to relate back to the beginning of the post.)
*Although I feel like I've read mixed information about whether caffeinated beverages are beneficial for hydration.
*tldr water is great.
