I said _typical_. A few days a month it gets down to like -10 and a few days a season it gets down to -20. A few days a year it might actually get to +10 too. But on _average_ the highs are a bit above freezing and the lows a bit below freezing.

I got my actual historic data from weather sites:

December 2014 weather:

January 2015 weather:

Let's go back a year to January 2014:

On the note of gravel, they use gravel here? Ugh. I might have to park my car and take transit. My three year old Mazda 3 doesn't have a single rock chip to this day.
