We hit a high of 12F. Headed negative tonight. Clear and chilly ahead.

Negative Fahrenheit's make me wonder if the climate-change is really such a bad thing…
I know! Now bash me!

OMG! Compared to the Russians we are all WUSSES!!!

Carbon Dioxide liquefies at −69.8F !!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide
Does that mean people in those areas have to wade through puddles of liquid CO2?

I am all for global warming, climate change not so much, who wants it colder?

I reckon I'd freeze so much up there I'd feel as hard as diamond

We had 71 below and I don’t recall puddles. Of course, the official temp was only -69 as I recall. But their thermometer was off.

The coldest temperature i have ever experienced was in December 2009 in Red Deer, Alberta with -40°C/F. Breathing in air that cold was just painful, imagine a permanent brain-freeze.
How does it feel at -71? Can you even breath in such cold air?

It wasn’t as bad as you would think. Actually, once it gets below -20 it all follows the same.

We went out and sat in the hot tub when it was 70 below, it was enjoyable.
