Welcome to the forum and don't forget to install an engine block heater before it starts to get cold.

Whats a Engine Block Heater ?

Winter is serious business in North Dakota. Give Fargo a watch for a look see.

You may have noticed that several parking lots have electrical outlets available (typically in employee parking). That's because it gets so cold that motors have a hard time starting in the winter. An engine block heater has a heating element you attach to your car or trucks motor to keep it warm enough to start. All automotive engines ca support an engine block heater.

When my Dad lived there (Beulah) they had a farm To get their tractor to start that had to use an auxiliary motor to work the tractors motor long enough to get it warm enough to start - something like 45 minutes IIRC.

Talk to your neighbors and co-workers about what they do for their vehicles and animals for the cold and also what gear you need to keep yourself warm. Also what they do to keep water lines from freezing. I'd bet you don't have many water lines in your house or apartment on outside walls.

Almost forgot - under no circumstances put the headboard of your bed against an outside wall unless you like wearing a balaclava when you sleep.

Your head will freeze - I learned that when I lived in snow country. Keep your headboard against an inside wall. A balaclava is sort of like a ski mask that has one large opening for most of your face. Highly recommended.

Lol ok what the health issues if your head freezes and how long does it take to freeze your head

Sure you didn't move to Newfoundland?
Your head doesn't freeze, per se, it just gets darned cold and you wake up. If it freezes, you die.
You learn to wrap your head in your blanket. I learned to when living in a house where the upstairs bedrooms were unheated. That's also why mummy bags have formations to envelop the head.
As a kid, I used to laugh at my dad because he would wrap his head in a blanket while he slept, a left over habit from sleeping in unheated attics as a boy.

and don't forget to install an engine block heater before it starts to get cold.

Growing up, we were excused from school if the bus was more than 30 minutes late. I eventually realized that if I went to the nearest school [where all the buses were parked for the north end of the school district] and unplugged them, 30 minutes of stomping my feet waiting for the bus and I was home free. Evidently I did it too often in my sophomore year, as the school district told drivers to take the buses home and plug them in.
