Tips to stay warm ahead of Denver's latest cold front

If the snow looks enticing Wednesday, keep in mind it's frigid outside.

By the numbers: The wind chill temperatures are expected to dip below 0° and the low is forecast to hit -1°.

• Thursday will be sunny but a face-freezing 22° and lows hovering near 0°.

What to know: We turned to our Axios colleague Monica Eng in Chicago for advice on how to stay warm.

• She reports she uses a heating pad on her office chair and wears microwavable slippers filled with rice to keep her toes toasty.
• Her bathroom is warm, so she sometimes works from her tub with her dog on her lap. Seriously, here's a photo.

Other tips she received from fellow midwesterners:

• Work in a room you can close and get a portable heater.
• Exercise. Pushups and jumping jacks get your blood pumping.
• Make a "simmer pot" that smells good and adds humidity.
