NORTH BEND, Wash. 鈥 Businesses and residents in North Bend are bracing for the strong winds that will only add to the freezing temperatures.

鈥淣o matter how cold it gets in Seattle, everybody still come and eat,鈥 said Clifford Gatterson.

Clifford and his wife, Monique, own聽. Their food truck popped up in North Bend on Wednesday evening.

Even in the cold, several customers lined up for a hot meal.

鈥淎nytime that they鈥檙e here, I鈥檓 always showing up,鈥 said resident Joe Fernandez.

Fernandez lives in the area so he says the winter winds don鈥檛 bother him much. With strong winds on the way, he says he鈥檚 ready for whatever comes his way.

鈥淚鈥檝e chopped all the wood I need to chop and I鈥檝e got my wood-burning stove going and that鈥檚 good so if the power goes out, I have my generator I have my wood burner,鈥 Fernandez said.

On the other hand, Monique isn鈥檛 a fan of the cold. She says the food truck helps but she still bundles up.

鈥淲ith my gloves, a couple sweatshirts and my ears are really cold and so I just got a tie my hoodie so that I鈥檓 warm because it鈥檚 cold. And we get the question all this time, 鈥楢re you guys warm because of the fryers?鈥 We鈥檙e warm but it鈥檚 still cold!鈥

Before traveling out to North Bend, the Gatterson鈥檚 made sure their truck was ready to withstand the winter weather.

鈥淲hen the temperature drops below freezing, I have to put one of those radiator heaters on here to keep my water system from freezing up,鈥 Clifford added. 鈥淥nce we turn everything off in the cold weather sets overnight you know. If you鈥檙e not careful, you come back to a truck that has no running water because your whole line is frozen so we have to prepare for that and take and take precautions for that.鈥
