It could be worse - in Fahrenheit; minus 11 is actually ‘43 below freezing’.
We seem to be using a combination of Celsius (0 degrees freezing) and Fahrenheit (32 degrees freezing) and coming up with stats that are neither one or the other . Very confusing.

Regardless, 40 below, is 40 below (Celsius or Fahrenheit)

“We seem to be using a combination of Celsius (0 degrees freezing) and Fahrenheit (32 degrees freezing)...”
When it is -40 degrees it is both...-40 C = -40 F. That is where our ‘windchill’ is right now.
