Ouch. That is cold. It is -4C here this morning. That is not too hard to take. I remember about 15 years ago when I was working a midnight shift at this time of year and it was -30, and I worked outside :-(
Thirty years ago when I was newly graduated and having trouble finding a decent job a friend in Winnipeg told me there were lots of jobs out there and invited me to stay at his place if I wanted to look for a job. I got off the plane on Dec. 6 and it was -40, which the same in F and C. Everyone out there told me that it doesn't usually get that cold until later in the winter. I thought that if it ever gets that cold I did not want to live there. I had an excursion ticket, so I was stuck there for 12 days. It warmed up to -30.

I was also told that it is a dry cold so you don't feel it as much. Baloney. That may apply down to about -25, but -40 is damned cold. The relative humidity was over 80%, because it's too cold for any moisture to be in the air. They also claimed that people dress for the cold. That gave me the to opportunity to point out the complete absence of people outside. Our winters may be somewhat cold and miserable, but we can still go out and enjoy the outdoors without worrying about frostbite.
