The coat

It's four days before my flight to the US.

The clothes and accessories I will bring are largely decided. The indecision is which overcoat I will need - the full length wool or the trench coat.

I don't need either in the Pacific north-west. The temperature there will be between low single digit and mid double digit C. The uncertainty hinges on the weather in NY, NY.

I have been monitoring the weather forecast for the past two weeks.
My judgement call is that by the time I am in NY on the 5th of February, low temperature in NY will be between -1 to -3C.

With the clothes that I can layer on, I have finally decided that the iconic London Fog trench coat will do me fine.


Finally. Decision made.

Every other piece of clothing will fall nicely in place. Heh!

trench coat works better actually.
I had down jacket which is as good as useless.
