I was out and about here in NYC when it was 4 F with 25 mph winds at times. But I grew up in CHicago and lived in Maine for 3 years where
that was not so uncommon.  The absolute coldest I've ever experienced
personally was -40 F in Orono, Maine in.. um I think 1961-1962 season.

Today I was very carefully dressed in layers, to top layer being a
jacket I bought back in 2004 at a thrift store near GFM - as the weather
was somewhat less hospitable than I had anticipated.

Intended to stay in today, but I had to collect a friend from a medical
procedure or they wouldn't let her leave. TOtally unnecessary over-precaution but we had a nice lunch and visit.

I think it went down to around -30c here in Toronto last night.
60km/hr (around 40mph) winds made it feel colder than -40C. (-40C =
-40F). I have about a 2 km walk home from the bus stop at 1am.
Luckily the wind was at my back. It was cold. ;-)

That's quite dangerous. If you're walking back that late because of
working then they have a duty of care to pay for a taxi or something.


I find it hard to even comprehend temperatures like that.  The coldest
it's ever been here was about -6C about 10 years ago.  And that was just
for an hour or two around dawn.

The coldest I've ever been was at Mt Saint Helens last May - about -13C.


Cheers

It was -26 C (-16 F)in Michigan last night, and it’s -24 C (-11 F)
right now. I suspect it was quite a bit colder up Wheatfield’s way.
