I'm a "Northern" Georgian as well! The word is LAYERS, LAYERS, AND MORE LAYERS...my big mistake was buying a big monstrous heavy coat and wearing it with like one sweater and thinking that'd be good...Nope, suprisingly wearing 1 undershirt, 2 t-shirts, and 1 sweater with a fairly decent coat actually did the trick better...I live in DC so you may need even more layers..Long Johns are a must and invest in some nice knee high boots and put em inside your jeans/pants, 2 or 3 layers of socks.......
GLOVES ARE NECESSARY--no ifs and or buts on that...don't get the cheap kind either but the insulated ones. Also hats are nice but for the REALLY rough days....they dont cover your ears or your cheeks nearly as much as they should..Get something like this

and be sure your coats have an adjustable hoodie...you'll feel like a warm fetus with the combination of the hoodie and face mask
while everyone's lips are being blown away...
