    I knew mine wouldn't be the coldest lol :) I had faith in my fellow Canucks to come up with some better temps. I'm in Victoria now; so maybe -10 with the windchill if it's really cold

    -8c at the Snowies in Eastern Aussieland. So not a cold climate person. London better not dive into this range too often.

    Just reading -64c makes me shiver, and its a balmy +27 outside. Brrrrrr.

    Vail and Breckenridge during January. We're not used to those temperatures in North Carolina. Of course it's a "dry cold" right? Great skiing though. Can't complain too much.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    but you've never visited her there? There are actually a lot of foreigners residing there because of it's cool climate...if you go further, you'll reach the Banawe Rice Terraces...

    When I lived in Kenyon, MN we had some less than zero days. Not sure how bad it was with the wind chill. I did, however, learn that it is VERY painful to try to change from snowboots to ice skates outside in that kind of cold. OUCH!!!! :eek:
    Walking can be a real trip

    I'm sure I've been to colder places, but somehow Vancouver last December was the coldest I've ever felt. I was chilled to the bone, and couldn't wait to be in Seattle, where it was one degree warmer :)

    At the very top in the French Alps one afternoon during a skiing holiday. I was as warm as toast but we were told it was -22C with the wind chill. There was no stopping for a quick pee behind a bush there.

    probably Scotland.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    NYC Jan '03. I don't know if temperature wise it was the coldest ... but it is the coldest I've felt.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
