“Today going to be very cold,” said the weather man on the TV.
“You need to wear very warm clothes.”

Dr. Hayden turned off the T.V. He put on the warmest clothes he had. He put on a sweater, jacket, gloves, socks, boots, and a hat. Then, he went outside. It snowing and the wind blowing. “Wow, it very cold outside,” said Dr. Hayden. The weather man was right! He got into his car. He turned the key. The engine came to life. He turned up the heat. He very cold.

There a lot of traffic on the road. The cars going slow. The doctor did not understand why everybody going so slow. “Why all the cars going so slow today?” he said. "They going as fast as usual. Usually they go faster."
