Too bad about bailing early, next time you should pick a spot that's more sheltered by trees. Waking up to a view is always a bonus but not always possible. 18m/s (40mph) wind is pretty bad for a regular tent.
What did you have for dinner? That can have a big influence on staying warm for the night.

Make sure that you seal it properly and don't leak or you're in for a bad time.>tuck disposable handwarmers into your socks so your feet don't get cold while sleeping>>1712784>Keeping your pee warm inside your body actually costs more energy than going uot and reheating yourself againthis. This anon has winter camped before. Just suck it up, go pee, and you will feel much warmer once you are back in your sleeping bag. You will sleep better not struggling to hold it in.
