    Iniisip ata ni kags naka winter clothes pa rin sa loob. LOL.

    Coldest I've experienced in my life is -1 C ata (definitely not over -5). I did not want to leave home and the weather just made me feel sick.

    If that’s the case, go to Chicago around May. April temperatures would still be around freezing (30 to 40 Fahrenheit). However, after 3 months of below freezing temperatures, that kind of weather is warm enough for us to play golf in the morning sun (only in Chicago, hehehe!).

    What I hate is magkaskas ng tumigas na snow sa windshield habang nangingisay ka sa ginaw, aside sa pagpapala....😂😂😂

    Driving is a whole different challenge....

    Mas mahirap tanggalin yung ice kaysa snow lalo na kung makapal na.

    AWD is a welcome thing for drivers during snowy weather.

    The heater there is thru a small furnace using LPG which is piped and billed like water. You can set the temperature on the house to your preferred warmth. In most homes, the heater uses the same vents and controls as the air conditioning system. Yung ibang Pinoy doon para makatipid sa gas bill, di masyado mainit yung heater. Si misis lagi naka set sa room temperature yung bahay, 75* F which is about 25*C.

    Kaya kailangan mo ng mga sensor-alarms to detect any leakages as these are fatal....

    My personal experience, masakit sa katawan the following day ang heater...

    when i was doing further study in 'merica, decades ago,
    i noticed that my flat had electric range, electric room heater, electric water heater.. electric everything!
    no gas of any sort.
    i was wondering, is this a building safety policy of the city or the state? or is this a dictate of economy?

    There are regulations or zoning laws covering certain buildings. For some, gas lines may not be readily available or may not be a standard option so an alternative is used. Electric heaters would then be the best option. In the woods or farms, some people still have their chimneys in their houses.

    When I was in the US, below are the list of utilities I pay. During summer, my electric bill rises due to air conditioning (yes, it can get to 30* Celsius around July). During winter, it is my gas bill which rises.

    - Electricity
    - Water
    - Gas
    - Phone/Cable/Internet (combo package)
    - mobile phone

    Depende siguro where you were based.

    Where we lived (NY, NJ and PA) more of piped in gas dun sa latter 2 states kasi it was the suburbs. Sa NYC, puro 'heritage' buildings (except in some parts of Manhattan of course). So one place we lived in had those old fashioned steam radiators connected to a boiler in the basement. Grabe sa ingay yun if I-adjust mo yung temp. It would sound like someone was banging a hammer on the pipes.

    ===
    Alam mo talaga pag `Pinoy ang maybahay kasi we don't turn down the heat in the evenings like our neighbors Most Americans either throw on a sweater, thick quilts or an electric blanket to save on heating expenses. Kami, usually hovering around 70F yung thermostat hahaha
