These are the days Canadians are baptised in the cold!

Makes Minnesota feel damn near tropical by comparison. Only 14 below here (-25C).

Weather like that is why I moved from Saskatchewan to Kelowna. 1 C here today but cooling off to -10 mid week. Those -30 to -40 days for weeks on end are just ridiculous
 
It was positively balmy today here in central Iowa. -3F but with full sun and practically no wind. I was able to open my south-facing windows for about four hours this afternoon. Ah, crisp fresh air!
 
One of the many reasons I love living in the SF Bay Area, and the city more specifically, is the weather.

It’s like the baby bear’s stuff from Goldilocks and the three bears, everything is just right.
 
Really stiff breeze out there this morning, glad I don’t have to work outdoors today

I'll never forget one of the first times my wife came over to Alberta from Switzerland to visit. It was February, and it was in the minus 50s with the wind. I had to swear it wasn't normal, lol. :eek:

I've lived in Zurich going on 9 years now. I think it's cold anytime it dips below zero now! :ROFL: :ROFLMAO::ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
Was feeling quite proud of our wee minus ten today but after seeing the temperatures on the previous posts, well now I’m just embarrassed :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Growing up in Edmonton, Alberta Canada, I've experienced my fair share of -30/-40c, but I'll always remember December 2009.

Came back from a ski trip to find my car (and everyone elses) completely frozen in the parking lot where we had left them. The tow service couldn't make it out til the next day to de-thaw all the car engines in the lot, lol.

The only other time I recall experiencing -50c was of course the first time I took my Swiss wife home for Christmas, lol. I must have told her 100x that week that it wasn't normally that cold in winter.

Probably needed your big coat that day
 
Well…I guess I prefer extreme cold to wearing a lacrosse helmet in my bathroom. At least it’s warm…
