One thing all Minnesotans have in common is having to deal with extremely cold temperatures during the winter. Just to clarify, there is cold (anywhere from 0 to 25 degrees), and then there is cold (days when 0 degrees is the high). On those extremely cold days, many of us do what we can to avoid having to go outside. However, some don't have that option, such as your fellow school bus drivers. In fact, drivers have to endure early morning temperatures which is typically the coldest part of the day. Keeping in mind that the weather never stands in the way of a school bus driver, we asked drivers what they do to keep warm on those extremely cold winter days. 

Here are the most common answers:

1. Start the day early

2. Preheat your vehicles

3. Keep the heat on high

4. Proper attire/ extra layers

5. Wear long underwear

6. Hand and foot warmers

7. Bring a blanket

8. Keep hot chocolate or coffee close by

9. Bring a space heater to plug in whenever you get a chance 

10. Mentally prepare
