You pussy...

You masochist. ;~))

The coldest I ever had to endure was minus 20, and I can't believe below that it would even make a difference. It freak'n hurts. ;)

God bless the folks enduring this mess.

I’m glad you took that in the spirit it was intended. LOL!

At -44F it is so cold that you cannot inhale, without freezing the mucus in your throat or nose. Your teeth hurt from the cold and exposed skin starts to ache in a couple of minutes. In my experience with those kinds of cold temps in the north country, and in Canada there is rarely a wind associated with it. It is usually high barometric pressure, cloudless skies, and zero wind. and -44 degrees at 6:30 am. But the two-stroke snowmobile engines love that cold dense air.

There is a certain S&M aspect of living here...52 years and counting.

FWIW, Lived in Buffalo as a kid, spent 35 years in Syracuse, and moved to Rochester. Went to SU as an undergrad and Cornell for grad school.
