My story takes place in a city during a hard winter: streets are covered with snow, the wind is blowing, the river is frozen. I describe all the setting in the very first scene. My character leaves his coat behind in a closed pub and later suffers from cold in the streets on his way home. How many pages could a reader remember it is winter? Should I remind him of the setting each time my character leaves his appartment?
