It gets a little chilly up here in January. Usually we are good for at least 2 weeks of -40F. Good weather for drying the laundry.
I was out in northern Alberta for two weeks in early February in 1980 and the warmest it got for the previous 2 weeks was -45F. I got there and it warmed up to -40F. |

I can't even imagine how cold that is. It's gets under 20F here and I'm dying. -40F has to be a real PITA. |

Better to wear mitts, they keep the hands warmer AND you wont stick to the same metal pole or door handles. Don't plan on running without a scarf over your mouth and nose. You will freeze your lungs, so I am told (I don't run at all). At those temps, you leave the car running while you are in the store. Or do what I do and that is just stay at home beside the wood stove. I check the weather every morning in winter. |

That's stupid cold. :o :doh: |
When it gets down that cold, I find excuses not to go out. You can tell before you go out. The cats and dog are almost right on top of the stove trying to keep warm.
The chickens stay in their house and welcome me with the heat gun to thaw out their water system. When it gets down that cold we don't let the stoves go out. Junior will stay up 'till 2 tending them and I will get up about 4 to start babysitting them. Smoke from the chimney goes straight up. |
In the north east of England we simply put a jumper on :O:

In days gone by, I would wear long johns, but I find them too restrictive and a PITA to put on and take off. IF I was spending a long time out in the cold, then I would consider wearing them again. |
Somewhere between 7 and 10 inches of snow on the ground this morning.
It's been years since we've had this much. :hmmm: :o |
