I know that many deaths on the east coast are older people and their AC's just cant deal with it, or worse yet when blackouts happen there when everyone has their AC chugging. No, survivalists and endurance athletes know how to deal with it, part of the training. It's usually runners that drop anyway, among the healthy. Running is bad for your health as it is.

Cold sux too. Meh half frozen slush falling out of the sky is just nasty. I've been in 30 below quite a many times, not so bad if dressed right. Frozen snot and all, dangling from my beard hah |
It only sneaks up on you the first time. After that you're able to recognize what's happening. Kind of like the second time a man starts hitting on you at a bar and you realize he isn't just being friendly.
