Damn it's cold

We had a bit of a cold snap over night. It has dropped from about -1 to -15 over night. Add a bit of windchill and its around -20.

Cant wait for winter to really set in :rolleyes:
 
Mid 40's predicted for this week. Anyone want to swap?

Although -20 might be a little much for me.

Yeah, you should spend a few hrs in your freezer to help aclimatise. It will be worse for you. Going from +40 to -10 is hard.

Interesting to note that your freezer is set to about -4....

It's warmed up again today. It's only -3.

Ps. Just noticed the changed thread title, I don't think "damn" adequately summarizes my feelings to the temperature, but ill accept the change in order to keep the PC police happy. :D
 
I've worked in -25c before, not fun.

I remember wiping my face and losing my eyelashes to the cold.

Still in Boratland I'm assuming?

-25 is getting cold and unpleasant.
The coldest I have personally experianced was -38 with a -33 windchill. At that temp everything shuts down. It takes less than a 500m walk to turn hot beer into Popsicles - so it's hard to even sit inside and drink :(. If you are willing, your pee freezes on impact with the ground (but who would ever get 'it' out in such conditions I'm not sure.
It has got lower than that, luckily I wasn't here to see it.

I have been swimming in Jan but it was 'warm'. About -5.

Looks like I'll be going 30 degrees to 5 degrees to -10. The 5 degrees in Osaka will help
