To your knowledge, our press reports that in Southern Siberia temperatures are below -40 degrees celsius - lowest measured by publication of article was -49 degrees celsius.

Oh... and those numbers for Jyväskylä are for day time. About -26 degrees celsius expected for this night.

siberian cold? that's mild winter weather around here (Montreal). I was snowboarding at -20c 10 days ago and it felt very mild.

Boarding all day at -30c with another -20c windchill, that's Siberian cold. We only come inside to warm up when we can no longer feel our fingers and toes.

Ah canadian winters!, you have to love it.

A high of 52 F. on 30 January in Michigan.

A January thaw is not at all uncommon, but it has to freeze before it can thaw.

Still, not as warm as 2006.

35 F in Leeds at the moment and I am off to watch the football best get wrapped up and take me hip flask

Currently -21 degrees celsius in Jyväskylä (-23 with wind factor). Earlier today it was -20 but -28 with wind factor. In the end it was somewhat chilly day today - not cold though.

Okay, okay, "freezing" don't hit!

Herr-Berbunch · 01-30-12, 03:33 PM

2°C here. I think Dowly's gonna win

We had a very, very light amount of tiny snow this morning.

The Geordie Thermometer

50 Degrees. Southerners turn on their heating. Geordies plant their gardens.

40 Degrees. Southerners shiver uncontrollably. Geordies Sunbathe.

30 Degrees. Southern cars will not start. Geordies drive with their windows down

20 Degrees. Southerners wear coats, gloves, and wool hats. Geordies throw a t-shirt on (Girls start wearing mini-skirts)

10 Degrees. Southerners begin to Evacuate. Geordies go swimming in the North Sea.

Zero degrees. Southern landlords turn up the heat. Geordies have the last barbecue before it gets cold.

Minus 10 Degrees. Southerners cease to exist. Geordies throw on a lightweight jacket.

Minus 80 Degrees. Polar bears wonder if itâ€™s worth it. Geordie Boy scouts start wearing long trousers.

Minus 100 Degrees. Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Geordies put on their long johns.

Minus 173 Degrees. Alcohol freezes. Geordies become frustrated because the pubs are shut.

Minus 297 Degrees. Microbiological life starts to disappear. The cows on Newcastle town moor complain of vets with cold hands.

Minus 460 Degrees. All atomic motion stops. Geordies start to stamp their feet and blow on their hands.

minus 10°C in the morning. Nothing to complain about.

Warm winter here on the mid-atlantic.

We have not gone under freezing too many times this winter.

A great change after getting slammed with nasty nor'easters 3 days apart.

I love shoveling 18 inches of snow from around my truck, then 2 and a half days later have to shovel another 2 feet of it out.

Jersey has been cursed with blizzards past 3 years

Yeah. Fun.
